KC To Host Biennial Export Exchange

The U.S. Grains Council will host its next Export Exchange at Kansas City’s newest convention hotel. The event, scheduled for October 7-9 at Loews Kansas City, is co-sponsored by Growth Energy and the Renewable Fuels Association. More than 200 international purchasers and end-users of U.S. coarse grains and related products are expected to join an estimated 300 U.S. producers, agribusinesses and representatives at the event. In addition to business-to-business meetings and an exhibit hall, the conference will address critical issues facing U.S. exports to build awareness of the benefits of U.S. corn, sorghum, dried distiller’s grains with solubles, and other products. The most recent Export Exchange took place in 2018 in Minneapolis, where grain buyers from 35 countries conducted trades valued at just over 400 million dollars.
