This week’s Open Mic guest is Brent Boydson, Immediate Past Chairman of the U.S. Grains Council. While there are immense headwinds to maintaining and growing markets for U.S.corn, sorghum and barley, Boydson believes emerging markets in Africa and India will provide tremendous growth opportunities for US farmers. He says U.S. efforts to verify sustainable ag practices, as well as the continued reliability and quality of products and increasing demand for more meat and protein, will open new markets.
