The geography of European grain trade is shifting again.
Ukraine and Russia remain surrounded by export uncertainty. Parts of Western Europe are dealing with production losses after drought and extreme heat. Meanwhile, crop availability across the Balkans is becoming increasingly significant.
Romania, Bulgaria and Serbia alone are expected to produce 57+ million tonnes of grains and oilseeds this year, giving the region an increasingly important role in European and regional flows.
For traders, processors, exporters, logistics companies and producers, that changes the conversation.
Where will the tonnes move? Which origins will be most competitive? How will regional balances change? And where will the opportunities emerge?
Be part of the discussion in Sofia on 22 October!
Grain Academy marks its 10th Anniversary Edition by bringing the regional grain and oilseed market together in the Bulgarian capital for the first time.
On 22 October 2026, market participants from across the Balkans, Southeastern Europe and the wider international grain industry will meet at Grand Hotel Millennium Sofia to discuss the forces shaping the new season, regional balances, trade flows and the opportunities emerging across the market.
One region. One changing market. One place to meet the people behind it.
For a decade, Grain Academy has been a key meeting point for the grain and oilseed markets of Balkans and Southeast Europe, bringing together traders, farmers, processors, logistics companies, analysts and other industry professionals from across the region.
Over the years, that annual meeting has developed into a strong professional community, where market perspectives are exchanged, partnerships are built and connections continue well beyond the conference itself.
