0 Czech Republic: Government to inspect Budvar Brewery

The Czech Government plans to inspect Budvar brewery in order to find out whether its contracts, including the recent distribution deal with long-time US rival Anheuser Busch, are advantageous, Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported April 2.

Trade Minister Martin Riman recently said that the deal between the two companies lowers Budvar's value.

The brewery's general manager, Jiri Bocek, countered that it will take at least until September before the contract's benefits could be assessed, the Hospodarske noviny daily reported.

The brewery, which according to Riman's recent remarks has a brand value of between 20 and 30 billion koruny (932 million and 1.4 billion dollars), has been involved in a worldwide legal battle with Anheuser Busch over the Budweiser trademark for almost a century.

In January the two rivals struck a deal in which Anheuser Busch, which is seen as an important bidder in any future privatization, is to distribute Budvar's lager across the United States under the Czechvar brand name.

The Czech centre-right government recently conceded to a possible future sale of Budweiser Budvar, the last major Czech brewery remaining in state hands, in order to raise budget revenues, earlier reports said.

0 EU: The impact of the growth of bio-fuels production on malting barley

Jacques Fidelle of JF Consultant reported on the impact of the growth of bio-fuels production on cereals, oilseeds crops and malting barley, during the barley, malt & beer conference organised by Roger Martin International in Budapest on March 28-30.

Bio-fuels represent the new farming outlet. There will be an increased competition for acreage between food, feed and energy crops. The petroleum prices are due to increasingly influence grains and oilseeds markets, agricultural prices are becoming oil driven. In the USA the ethanol production capacities currently operating and underway (i.e. excluding new projects) will already need a corn supply in excess of 100 million tons or one third of the current corn USA yearly production.

In Europe, the 2010 objective of 5,75% incorporation of bio-fuels in road fuel consumption is due to propel the energy crops acreage from today 7% of the arable land up to at least 16%, would this be at all possible. Malting barley users are recommended to pay the right price to the farmer, contract grow and make use of the winter malting barley potential.
