U.S. exports of Corn (NAICS 111150) totaled $1.7B in August 2026.
Importers of Corn paid $1.4M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 6.27% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Corn imports of $21.8M in August 2026 ran 13% below the year-to-date monthly average of $25.0M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataAt the six-digit NAICS level, code 111150 captures corn farming establishments, reflecting the crop's central position in US grain production and its extensive downstream supply chain connections to livestock feed, wet-milling, and biofuel sectors. Moisture content at harvest — typically targeted below 15.5% for safe storage — is a key quality parameter that affects both domestic marketing and import admissibility. Importers and exporters should be aware that genetically engineered corn varieties may require additional regulatory review depending on the destination market.

Yes. Genetically engineered (GE) corn varieties may require USDA APHIS notification or permit depending on the specific trait and whether the variety has received non-regulated status. Some export markets also impose their own GE approval requirements, so exporters should verify destination-country biotech approval status before shipment to avoid rejection.
Standard US corn contracts reference 15.5% moisture as the base for pricing and weight calculations. Corn delivered above that threshold is subject to price discounts and may require drying before storage or export. Importers receiving corn in bulk should verify moisture certificates and factor potential drying costs into landed cost calculations.
