The world’s premier trading event in the grain calendar, GlobalGrain attracts over 600 delegates from 50 countries

The presentations at GlobalGrain2007 predicted an 07/08 campaign of tight grain supplies and increased prices but perhaps not to “never- seen- before” levels.

The presentations will include:
• World grain outlook for 08/09
• European export surpluses and where the demand will be
• Freight market predictions for 08/09
• Economic and government influences for grain production in Eastern Europe
• Legal issues- how to avoid trouble
• The “non- grain” influences in the market and how to deal with them
• The service industry and their role for healthy grain trading
• A panel involving the CME, a leading agricultural bank, a commodity fund and the agricultural industry (producer and consumer) will discuss the situation and how best to find solutions to reinstate a hedging mechanism that works.
