Summary: The hot and dry weather in Argentina is not conducive to the growth of corn. In addition, the planting rate of the second crop of corn in Brazil is 32%, which is far behind the same period last year by 63%. It is expected that the output may decrease. . Domestically, the surplus grains in the hands of growers in the main producing areas are very limited, and the main grain traders are reluctant to sell them. Deep processing companies just need to replenish their warehouses. In addition, the logistics and transportation conditions are limited in rain and snow weather, and the rate of corn production is slow. Processing companies are still continuing With the increase in price purchases, the spot corn price was basically stable, and some of them were strong, which supported the futures price. However, it is reported that 1,426 tons of Heilongjiang temporary storage corn will be put on March 4, which will fill the market supply. In terms of demand, the maximum inventory life cycle of processing companies in the Northeast production area has been extended to April. At the same time, the African swine fever epidemic situation has risen around the Spring Festival, and the pig stock has declined for two consecutive months from January to February, and downstream feed enterprises have replaced more grains, and the replacement ratio has also been increasing.

With the recovery of logistics, after the Lantern Festival, some downstream starch enterprises have replenishment needs, and some enterprises in Shandong have not yet started up, and have been consuming starch stocks, reducing the stocks by 27,700 tons last week, a decrease of 3.46%. In addition to the limited conditions of logistics and transportation in rainy and snowy weather, the rate of increase in corn volume is slow, deep processing companies are still purchasing infinitely increasing prices, and the high cost pressure makes corn starch companies maintain a high price mentality, and the overall spot price will continue to be maintained. High-level operation provides support to the futures market. However, with the rapid recovery of the corn starch industry operating rate in the later period, most companies will resume full-production operation in March, the market supply has increased significantly, and the inventory itself is at a relatively high level, coupled with the slow recovery of downstream demand, and insufficient efforts to purchase high prices , It is expected that cornstarch will oscillate with corn, and cornstarch 2105 contract will participate in the intraday trading.
