Bi-weekly Bulletin | August 31, 2007 - Volume 20 Number 14
Australia is one of Canada’s major
competitors in the grains and oilseeds export market. It is
normally the
world’s largest exporter of barley, second largest exporter of
canola and fourth largest exporter of wheat. As a
result, changes in policies and markets for grains and oilseeds
in Australia have important implications for
Canada. As an example, the possible change in Australia’s
concentration from non-genetically modified (GM)
canola to GM canola could have an effect on Canada’s canola
industry, which is primarily of the GM variety and
export-oriented. This issue of the Bi-weekly Bulletin looks at
the major developments and the market situation and outlook for
Australia’s grains and oilseeds sector and explores the
implications for Canada.
