Four kiwi crop farmers were among a group of 30 Australasian growers who recently spent two weeks in Europe as part of a
grains knowledge tour organised by agribusiness banking specialist Rabobank.
An opportunity to visit European counterparts on their farms, the tour also provided insights into the supply chain
dynamics influencing global trade, with visits to grain-processing operations, major European ports, agri-chemical
suppliers, machinery manufacturers and grain marketers in the Netherlands, Germany and Ukraine.
