European Market Analysis

Regional News  Romania moved to extend its grain import licensing system for Ukrainian products through the end of 2025. The measure is intended to minimize price and oversupply pressure on Romania’s domestic markets but disrupts the free trade flows arranged in the EU framework earlier this year. The move will force Ukraine to reevaluate its grain export routes and could affect global pricing, especially for wheat and corn, as harvest moves closer.  The euro currency continues to gain against the U.S. dollar in a move that is pressuring EU grain/oilseed futures, physical markets, and exports.  The weather forecasts continue to issue a challenging outlook for Europe with respect to crop development in the next two weeks...

Illuminating the value of technical research

On behalf of a commodity producer organization, WPI evaluated the outputs from a project that featured a $5 million investment into technical research over multiple years. WPI’s team captured the results of this extensive effort and synthesized them for presentation to the organization’s governing board; among the findings uncovered and presented for the first time was the development of genomic traits proven, via rigorous testing, to provide crop yield advantages of 50 percent or more to U.S. farmers in times of drought. Capturing measurable results from long-term efforts can be challenging. Educating clients on the dynamics of success measurement when quantifiable results are not readily available requires deep client-consultant collaboration and an ability to consider both near- and long-term client aspirations with market/policy dynamics – attributes that WPI brings to every consulting engagement.
