The Mexican government has introduced a 50% tariff on white corn exports, one of the countrys staple foods. The levy will be in place until at least June and comes as Mexico tries to stabilize prices and keep the essential white corn, usually used for tortillas, in the country.
The supply and production of white corn in our country are important factors in determining its price and, therefore, of the various consumer products made from it, says the decree published in Mexicos official gazette.
