Workshop provides insight for local grain growers
On Thursday 13 June, local grain growers with an interest in understanding grain marketing attended a free, half-day workshop at the Pittsworth Hotel Motel, organised by GrainGrowers and conducted by Market Check.
The workshop provided growers with various tools, market insights and solutions to grain marketing requirements and risk management plans.
It delivered a convenient A to Z of grain marketing, delivering a range of resources and useful information for growers and with experts available to answer any questions.
GrainGrowers CEO Shona Gawel said the workshops had been developed after grower interest in the organisation’s trade and market access work.
“Previous workshops have been very positively received and based on feedback we’ve focused on making sure the resources and information are useful for growers,” Ms Gawel said.
Market Check’s years of experience in research and analysis provided participants with practical, real-world examples of understanding the market’s current state and using available tools to implement appropriate risk management strategies.
The workshop was one of 10 scheduled across five states including Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia from June to July.
