U.S. Grains Council President and CEO Ken Hobbie attended the National Association of Farm Broadcasting’s 2009 Washington Watch, meeting with over 20 ag journalists. Hobbie sat down with Ken Anderson from Brownfield Network to discuss the current status of the international marketplace. He noted the world market can rest assured that U.S. farmers are on track to meet the demands for feed grains. “We’re beginning to see some of this economic recovery have a positive effect on the international market. The United States is certainly in a position to supply all of the customers in the world,” said Hobbie. To listen to the interview, click here.
