The flare-up of fighting in Ukraine, a key ag producer in Eastern Europe, is creating turmoil across a wide range of markets including the grain trade. But what does it mean for prices for the 2022 and 2023 season? How will the supply chain be impacted? What are the key supply areas vulnerable as fighting continues.

Bill Biedermann, long-time commodities adviser will take on the topic in a special online live event Tuesday, March 1 at 10 a.m. Central time.

During the live call viewers will be able to ask Biedermann questions, and he'll provide insights into how grain flows could be disrupted by the conflict.
