Commodity Crops: And The Merchants Who Trade Them

I had no idea that I knew so little about the grain business.

Short but full of useful information. I like that it is up-to-date with World events as recent as 2020. the interviews are excellent.

Jonathan Kingsman has written another brilliant addition to his Commodity Conversation series that delves into the unique attributes and challenges of commodity markets from a trader's perspective.Jonathan's books are totally unique in our industry and certainly worth a read for anyone looking to learn more about the forward-looking trends in the world's major crop markets.A+ reading, complex topics are easy to digest, really enjoyable start to finish. This one joins the other two on my shelf from Jonathan, and I've got one more of his on order...!

Very complete analysis of the latest trends in the most important agri commodities including the opinion of top world traders.

As a novelist once quipped, if you want to understand how the world works, study it when it's falling apart. Learning about commodities -- and supply chains -- has been part of my reading diet since the pandemic began. This book is a wonderful contribution to understanding the 'clockwork' behind our world.I found this book hard to put down.-- The writing is refreshingly clear. The reader needs no prior knowledge of commodity markets.-- The rhythm is engaging: after only the first 6 pages we get our first interview with a trader. These short interviews -- which the author is generous with -- are peppered throughout the book.Whether you're a seasoned trader or a layman, you'll find the "what's next" insights to be quite interestingI look forward to reading the rest of the author's books.Note: I bought the print version - which I recommend because the book does include charts. (I find charts and images to be more readable in print books than in Kindle.)Kudos for the brilliant cover!
