To better support Australia’s grains customers and the wider industry, AEGIC is joining Grains Australia to form a single, stronger organisation.

By uniting AEGIC’s market insights and market education expertise with Grains Australia’s existing responsibility for these functions, as well as classification and trade and market access, the integration creates a single, more coordinated and efficient organisation, ensuring resources are focused where they deliver the greatest value for growers and customers.

The people and organisations that AEGIC work with in Australia and around the world will continue to access our trusted expertise and services, now strengthened through Grains Australia’s broader coordination.

This is a positive step for Australia’s grains industry and our customers worldwide.

The integration is expected to be complete in 2026.

Grains Australia is an initiative of the Grains Research & Development Corporation (GRDC)
