The U.S. Grain Council (USGC) is actively engaged in maintaining and expanding trade relationships for U.S. corn, barley, and sorghum in foreign markets. With a focus on market development and access, the USGC has been a key player in facilitating exports to regions such as Asia, Latin America, North Africa, and beyond.

“The current strategies of the USGC revolve around sustaining relationships with established markets in countries like Korea, Japan, Taiwan, China, and Mexico,” explains Brent Boydstun, Chairman of the USGC. “We’re also looking into expanding our footprint in emerging markets across West Africa and different parts of Asia.”

USGC recently opened an office in India and is now the first U.S. cooperator group to have an officer there. Boydstun says he fully expects there to be a very good return once everything is fully up and running and operational.

Recent missions to regions like West Africa, including Senegal, have yielded promising outcomes. Collaborative efforts with local entities, such as feed mills and agricultural associations, are paving the way for enhanced trade relationships and market penetration.
