10 Countries That Export the Most Corn in the World

10. Serbia

Exports value: $389.3 million

Market share: 1.40%

We kick off with Serbia, a small Eastern European country in Balkans. It is one of only two European countries on the list that aren’t EU members. Serbia is traditionally a big corn manufacturer, but only recently it has managed to break into top 10 corn exporters, mainly due to major players reducing their production and exports, leaving a share of the market open for countries that can produce cheap corn. Despite the 2013 aflatoxin scandal that threatened to severely dampen Serbian’s corn exports, they remained stable, with 67 million bushels exported in 2015. Low wages turned out to be a major advantage Serbian corn farmers have over their wealthier competitors.
