BMI View: The uneasy relationship between the Argentinian government and the agricultural sector once again came to the fore in Q210. Exports of soybean and grains were halted for more than a week in March 2010 after dockworkers went on strike at Argentina's key grains ports, in a dispute over salaries. Labour tensions were also evident in the livestock sector, as the government introduced new export restrictions in a move to try to curb the rock.....

BMI View: Australia will see growth across all agricultural sectors following their recovery from consistent droughts in 2002. As a developed state, Australia will not expect to see large consumption increases, particularly as interest rate increases will squeeze consumer spending over the medium term. Despite this, Australian exports should see increased export opportunities through free trade agreements, particularly with its regional peers.....

BMI View: Despite consistent growth in population and domestic incomes, Brazilian agricultural production will continue to rely extensively on exports. We expect growth in almost all sectors, with soybeans, poultry, corn, coffee and sugar leading the way. Aside from export demand, sectors will benefit from a wave of consolidation and private investment in the case of poultry, coffee, and cocoa, as well as increased demand for alternative energies.....

BMI View: Canadian agriculture is facing mixed prospects. Some sectors will see strong growth by developed country standards, with poultry consumption growing by 10% and corn consumption growing 25% over the medium term to 2013/14. However, other sectors will continue to suffer, especially the barley, beef, and pork sectors. Canada is already relatively self-sufficient in most agricultural goods (barring sugar), and given its already established .....

BMI View: The tough fiscal consolidation plan that Greece has committed to in exchange for an EU and IMF bailout will cause no small measure of pain in agriculture.
On the supply side, farmers will struggle to secure credit, investment will suffer and some smaller producers may go out of business. On the demand side, more unemployment and economising by cash-strapped consumers will see consumption of some commodities suffer, notably beef, p.....

BMI View: Grains production in 2009/10 has been stronger than expected after the disastrous 2008/09 season, which saw severe droughts result in grains production dropping by a third. Although the sector has failed to recover to the levels seen in 2007/08 improved weather conditions has seen the sector's recovery hasten.

BMI View: The Mexican agricultural sector continues to contend with the effects of the economic recession, as the country has been slower to emerge from recession than we had previously anticipated. Domestic demand has been hit as consumers tighten their purse strings and production has suffered as the rising costs of energy and transportation have also increased costs, placing further strain on the agricultural sector.

BMI View: We expect 2009's devastating economic contraction of around 7.0% to continue to cast a shadow over both supply and demand for most agricultural commodities in 2009. With a large proportion of Romanian producers independent and modestly sized, there were some casualties in 2009 and a resulting drop in output in poultry, pork, beef, milk and sugar. There are nevertheless signs of recovery, although 2010's fiscal austerity plan may hit dem.....

In BMI's Turkey Agribusiness Report for Q2 2010, we take a closer look at the problems facing the country's livestock sector. Despite strong growth for most of the the past decade, beef consumption has stagnated. Per capita consumption remains very low by Western standards. While a change in tastes and increasing interest in healthy eating may partly explain the sluggish growth, the main factor is limited supply and high prices.

The United Kingdom's agricultural sector has benefited over the past year from the continued weakness of sterling. This has made exports of UK agricultural products more competitive on the world market. It has also raised the price of imported food, particularly from the euro area, giving a boost to domestic producers. Another benefit of the weak pound is that it has seen the value of EU subsidies, which are priced in euros, increase.
