Quote:

"China this past week bought 540,000 metric tons of U.S. corn for delivery after August * * * Now, traders believe that China is on the brink of buying millions of metric tons of U.S. corn * * * The Chinese 'are on the cusp, we believe, of needing a whole lot more corn than they can produce,' said David C. Nelson, a global strategist at Rabobank

"Although China is one of the world's great agricultural powers—it is the world's largest producer of wheat and rice, and the second-largest producer of corn, behind the U.S.—Beijing's ability to feed its population is one of its most sensitive domestic political issues.

My comment: Please pay heed to the first word ("cumulative") in graphich caption.
