HGCA will again be one of the major exhibitors at Cereals 2014, with a large stand containing both established favourites and exciting new features for 2014.
The role of national and independent research in delivering local solutions will be the focus of HGCA’s crop management research plots at Cereals 2014.
The executive director of Winter Cereals Canada says weather over the next two weeks will play a key role in determining the condition of this year's winter wheat crop coming out of the winter.
A pair of economic analyses issued April 16 by the National Grain and Feed Association (N.G.F.A.) estimated that up to $2.9 billion in economic losses have been sustained by the U.S. corn, distillers grains and soy sectors
India’s soymeal exports has recorded a negative growth of 0.59 million tonnes or 17.27 per cent at 2.84 million tonnes during the April 2013 to March 2014 financial year, writes Jagdish Kumar.
FAS Quito is estimating sugar production in MY 2013/14 coming in around 577,000 metric tons, or down some 55,000 MT or off nearly nine per cent compared the MY 2012/13 levels.
Viet Nam’s oilseed production continues to fall well below demand from the food industry and the livestock and aquaculture feed sectors due to low yield and strong competition from other field crops, namely corn.
Despite delayed rains and prolonged dry spells that affected the MY 2013/14 (Oct 2013-Sept 2014) cropping season in most selected countries, milled rice production continues to increase.
Within the next month, expansion is set to begin at Cargill’s Morris, Manitoba, farm service centre. The expansion will include increases to both rail capacity and grain storage.

The overall grain crop for MY 2014/2015 season is reported to be in good condition with an average yield of 79.5 kg/HA compared to national standard of 77 kg/HA, with very low impurity level, which optimizes its use in the mills.
