AgroFoodSummit 2026 Brings Grain, Oilseed and Milling Traders to Mersin

AgroFoodSummit 2026 is underway in Mersin, Türkiye, bringing together producers, traders, processors, logistics companies, investors and market analysts for two days focused on agricultural commodity flows. The event is being held on September 24 and 25 at the Hilton Mersin.

The program opens with a 2026 and 2027 grain outlook focused on global restructuring and Black Sea bottlenecks, followed by sessions on vegetable oils, soybeans and pulses. Milling also features in the agenda, reflecting Türkiye's large role in grain processing and flour trade.

Commodity speakers come from companies and associations across Türkiye, Ukraine, Europe, Central Asia, Africa and other importing and exporting markets. The format mixes analytical presentations with panel discussions, giving trading companies and processors a forum to compare supply expectations with logistics and demand conditions.

Mersin is a particularly relevant location for that discussion. Its Mediterranean port connects agricultural cargo routes serving Türkiye, the Black Sea region, the Middle East and North Africa, while the surrounding region hosts storage, processing and trading businesses tied to grain and food supply chains.

The first day program includes a grain outlook, an oil market session, a soybean market discussion and a global pulses panel. Organizers are using the second day to continue the market and industry program as participants assess how crop size, energy costs, freight constraints and regional trade disruptions could affect 2026 and 2027 flows.

For companies attending, the commercial value of the summit is less about a single forecast than the overlap between physical trade and market intelligence. Grain, oilseed and milling businesses are being forced to make decisions while routes, freight economics and buyer behavior are changing quickly, making Mersin a practical meeting point for both analysis and deal making.
