The importance of the four major grain merchants
The four major grain merchants control 80% of the world's grain trading volume, and only they can set prices. It seems unfair, but it is more of a helplessness. Under the background of international market integration and reorganization, the international grain market is far ahead, and the absolute advantages of the four major grain merchants occupy most of the international grain market and control the grain trade of many countries.
The energy of the four major grain merchants should not be underestimated, and the reactions of various countries are not groundless, which also proves the strength and influence of the four major grain merchants. In the international grain market environment based on competition, it is difficult for the powerful four grain merchants to surpass them, and their next actions will also attract close attention from all countries.
