With downloadable market data from dozens of countries and regions, plus highlights of Council activities from 2013, the U.S. Grains Council’s 2013 Annual Report at usgcAnnualReport.org<\/a> is a great resource for those following the global grain trade.<\/p>\n

“The downloadable spreadsheet <\/a>includes production, demand, imports, exports and feed consumption information for 60 countries and regions,” says Rex Martin, leader of the Council’s Membership and Communications Advisory Team. “Add in web-based country and regional overviews <\/a>that include everything from gross domestic product to market growth potential to highlights of Council activities, and it’s a great tool to see just some of the Council’s data and resources, and how we put them to work for members.”<\/p>\n

Market data by country is located in the “Market Profiles<\/a>” section, while the “Success Stories<\/a>” tab emphasizes high-points with accompanying videos. Photo-based highlights and additional notes complete the online report.<\/p>\n

A printed companion piece is being mailed to all Council members, with additional copies available at key Council meetings and tradeshows, including the Council’s booth at Commodity Classic in late-February. A PDF version<\/a> of the printed report is also available at usgcAnnualReport.org<\/a> by clicking on the corresponding link in the upper-right section of any page.<\/p>\n

“The Council works tirelessly on behalf of its members. It is continuously piecing together the possibilities of ever-changing global markets while promoting sound trade policies, building relationships that support members and forming partnerships that help ensure a more food-secure world,” says Martin. “The Council’s Annual Report is a great way to note the achievements while providing useful data to members; we encourage everyone to explore usgcAnnualReport.org<\/a>.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
