A total of 32,000 tons of corn imported from Argentina has arrived at the Paraná terminal, marking the fourth vessel to dock this year. Since January, 102,719 tons of corn have been imported, with the Ocean Royal being the latest vessel to dock.

Despite expectations of increased imports due to a drop in the Brazilian crop, the volume of imports is not significant compared to the expected Brazilian corn production of over 90 million tons.
