Contracts
Cash Contract
A fixed price is set for product delivery at an agreed-upon time; this can be nearby (spot) or at a forward date. Futures and basis are set simultaneously, and the price of the contract will not change over time.
Open Order Contracts
This contract lets producers set specific price targets to sell bushels for desired quantity and delivery periods if the market reaches their specified price during all trading sessions.
Forward Contracting
This contract is great for securing a favorable price and delivery period more feasible for your operation rather than selling current (spot) markets. Forward contracts typically are fixed priced, cash contracts. It is best to consider cost of carry (storage and interest) when deciding to forward contract.
Hedge to Arrive
This contract lets you lock in favorable future market prices while leaving the basis open on forward delivered bushels. Flexible delivery timeframes are utilized through rolling futures for a fee within the current crop year.
Extended Price
Extend your potential for pricing opportunities by selling your grain at today’s cash price while maintaining an open, penny for penny futures position off of your preferred futures month. On delivered bushels, you’ll have the ability to request a cash advance based off of a percentage of your initial cash price. There is a minimum bushel requirement with sales in set increments and a small maintenance fee. Enjoy flexible pricing and no storage costs but be mindful of market downturn risks.
Minimum Price – Long Call

Minimum Price – Long Put

Producer Flex Floor Contracts
