The team from Beer Business Daily and Beernet Radio offer candid coverage of the tumult and upheaval in the US beer wholesaler business.  In this episode, we touch on the following topics:  How are big brands (AB InBev, Molson Coors, Constellation Brands) applying pressure differently to their wholesaler networks? What is the outlook for hemp beverages (né marijuana edibles)? Will they be legal in 2027, and are they actual profit drivers for wholesalers?  Will wholesalers continue to diversify away from beer? Should this concern the biggest brands in their portfolio? Are wholesalers seeing a clear impact from the Trump administration's immigration crackdown? Should beer wholesalers move more aggressively into wine and spirits? Should those businesses be run separately from their beer business?    Have a question, qualm, or story to tell, reach out via email: Bourcard.Nesin@Rabobank.com Sign up to access our written research: RaboResearch sign-up   Note: The content and opinions presented within this podcast are not intended as investment advice, and the opinions rendered are that of the individuals and not Rabobank or its affiliates and should not be considered a solicitation or offer to sell or provide services.   Disclaimer: Please refer to our global RaboResearch disclaimer at https://www.rabobank.com/knowledge/disclaimer/011417027/disclaimer for information about the scope and limitations of the material published on the podcast.

Australian agriculture is starting 2026 from a position of high ground despite the uncertainty and volatility. 2025 proved to be a good, or better, year for most regions and commodities, placing many businesses in a better position heading into an uncertain 2026.  In this episode, RaboResearch's Australia team discusses the economic and commodity outlook for Australia and concludes: 'While geopolitics is definitely setting the tone for 2026 and there remains the ever present uncertainty with trade and weather, Australian producers should feel confident they are in a strong position to deal with any headwinds'.   Disclaimer: Please refer to our global RaboResearch disclaimer at https://www.rabobank.com/knowledge/disclaimer/011417027/disclaimer for information about the scope and limitations of the material published on the podcast. 

In recent years, Brazil's corn ethanol output has expanded to well over one-quarter of the country's total ethanol production. With additional projects expected to come on line over the next three to five years, corn ethanol is likely to account for more than one-third of national ethanol output. From 2026 onward, and likely for the following five years, Brazil's ethanol market appears well supplied. For sugar producers, this reduces the flexibility to divert larger volumes of sugarcane into ethanol production when sugar prices are low. Andy Duff, Head of RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness – South America, discusses the implications for sugar supply and prices with Stefan Vogel, General Manager of RaboResearch Australia and New Zealand.   Disclaimer: Please refer to our global RaboResearch disclaimer at https://www.rabobank.com/knowledge/disclaimer/011417027/disclaimer for information about the scope and limitations of the material published on the podcast.

Chocolate products could be in for a shake-up, as manufacturers race to develop cocoa alternatives. A Rabobank report shows food companies are looking into new technologies to substitute traditional beans. Climate-related pressures are driving up global cocoa prices, and disrupting supply chains. RaboResearch analyst Paul Joules says companies will look into fermenting plants like oats and seeds for an alternative - to use in products like chocolate fillings. "The taste can be a little bit different, it can be a bit more sour if they don't quite get the fermentation right - and it's not necessarily a direct replacement for a typical chocolate bar."
