In today's agricultural landscape, effective marketing of grain, particularly genetically modified (GM) crops, is vital for future innovations. Understanding consumer acceptance and the quality characteristics of GM crops is crucial. This piece explores the necessity of grain channeling, which involves the segregation of GM crops from traditional grain supplies to meet market demands. As several countries, including the European Union and Japan, impose bans on GM crops, it becomes imperative for producers to strategically market grain based on specific traits while ensuring the integrity of their supplies.

Grain Channeling Protecting Today’s Investments for Tomorrow’s Innovations
Why must grain be marketed in today’s agricultural climate? • Consumer acceptance of genetically modified crops • Quality characteristics of genetically modified crops
How is this grain segregated? • Grain Channeling • Marketing grain based on specific traits and/or characteristics • Keeping similar biotechnology traits segregated from general supplies of grain
What did we learn today? • Grain channeling is a segregation of genetically modified crops • Several countries currently ban genetically modified crops, namely the European Union, Japan and some South American countries.
