In March 2012, corn price has enjoyed a slight uptrend thanks to some governmental support measures and the fact that farmers were still reluctant to sell their corn.

In addition, CCM International has begun to publish reports about the development of some corn products in 2011, some of which enjoyed good development, such as PLA, MSG, and L-phe. But they all have witnessed challenges at the same time, like high raw material cost, oversupply situation and governmental restriction. So related parties should better understand the products' market situations and take proper reactions.
