Introducing the newly released Agricultural Market Information System (AMIS) website.
AMIS is a G20 initiative. It is a global agricultural market information system that concerns itself with matters relating to wheat, maize (corn), rice and soybeans. It aims to enhance food market outlook information, by strengthening collaboration and dialogue among main producing, exporting and importing countries, commercial enterprises and international organizations.
AMIS aims to:
• improve agricultural market information, analyses and forecasts at both national and international levels;
• report on abnormal international market conditions, including structural weaknesses, as appropriate and strengthen global early warning capacity on these movements;
• collect and analyse policy information, promote dialogue and responses, and international policy coordination; and
• build data collection capacity in participating countries.
