2013 IGC Grains Conference

Soaring grain and oilseed prices due to poor harvests in key exporting countries have once again put food security and price volatility firmly back on the policy agenda, at a time when the global economy is still facing unprecedented headwinds from the financial and eurozone debt crises.

In particular biofuel mandates are coming under intense scrutiny and market participants fear that trade restrictions might further limit global availability.

The IGC Grains Conference brings together key decision makers, industry representatives and other stakeholders to discuss the latest developments in the grain and oilseed markets, together with the policy challenges they present.
