On April 3, 2018, Mexico published four notices announcing incentive programs intended to address an oversupply of corn in certain parts of the country, as well as some storage problems, damaged infrastructure due to the earthquakes in September 2017, and a decline in prices of corn and sorghum. In particular, the incentives target corn used for starch and human consumption in the Bajio region, yellow corn produced in Chiapas and sorghum harvested in Oaxaca in the 2017 spring-summer crop cycle.
