China’s impact on grain markets
Gregg Doud, former U.S. trade ambassador and one of the primary architects of the U.S.-China Phase 1 trade deal, will be a keynote speaker and is expected to share his experiences on international trade.
“Stepping up to China should have been done a long time ago,” says Doud, now chief economist at Aimpoint Research. “It was a historic time for agriculture to have that conversation with China about agriculture, and it had never happened before.”
Doud will offer an inside look at what it was like to negotiate the deal and work in the Trump administration.
