Agriculture news shows that the market is transforming before our eyes. At one level there is structural change as the global market increasingly decentralizes into a complex market of markets. At another level there is just the constant change driven from severe weather, geopolitical tensions, nation’s domestic priorities, surging biofuel demand and growing food insecurity concerns.
The sheer weight of both creates a volatile, noisy market. A market where it is both challenging to stay apace with market news and even harder to determine what the news really means – separating out signal from noise.
