USW’s North Asia Board Team Wrapping Up Visit to Three Vital Markets
Taeyoung Grain Terminal’s CEO took time from his busy schedule March 8, 2023, to meet with U.S. farmers from Idaho, Montana and Nebraska and explain what happens when a shipment of imported U.S. wheat arrives in South Korea.
It was a fitting way for the U.S. Wheat Associates (USW) 2023 North Asia Board Team to wrap up its 10-day exploration of top Asian markets.
“We’ve been able to see every step, where demand for our wheat is created at the consumer level, to the baking process where flour is used as the ingredient, to the milling process where flour is made with our wheat, and now to the import process, which is how our wheat gets to the market in the first place,” explained Bob Delsing, a Nebraska wheat producer and Nebraska Wheat Board member.
