AWB Limited
 PROFILE
AWB Limited (formerly the Australian Wheat Board) markets wheat and other grains grown on farms Down Under. Owned by 38,000 Australian grain growers and more than 67,000 investors, AWB controls the export of Australia's wheat production to more than 50 countries and is one of the country's largest exporters. Its other crops include feed grains such as barley and sorghum; lentils, lupins, and fava beans; and oilseeds such as canola. Its AWB Seeds division provides seed for those crops. AWB made the transition from government-owned to farmer-owned in 1999, although it continues to be monitored by the Wheat Export Authority.
