New wheat crop trade and technical missions return with in-person sessions

Cereals Canada was finally able to resume its annual New Wheat Crop Trade and Technical Missions after a two year pause. 

During December and January four delegations travelled to 15 countries including Asia, Latin America, Europe, Africa, and the Gulf Region.

The chief executive officer for Cereals Canada, Dean Dias says over the past two years their team has done an excellent job presenting the information to customers in an online-only format.
