- The surest way for you to reach your
financial goals is to operate profitably year after year.
- In order to sell at a profit consistently,
you must make a plan early and actively pursue that plan.
- Your most important marketing goals should
to be to identify your opportunities, act on them when they arise, and
eliminate unnecessary cost and risk.
Farmers Edge participating elevators
recommend and offer the following contracts to help you carry out
profitable marketing plan.
- Target Contract
- a contract to
sell a specific amount of grain for a specific delivery period
if a certain
price is reached. This contract can be entered before
harvest to ensure that your grain is sold if the market
reaches the price you need.
- Forward
Contract - a contract to
deliver a specified amount of grain at a specific time at a specific
price.
A Target Contract automatically becomes a Forward Contract if
your price is reached.
- Minimum Price Contract
- a supplement to a Forward Contract
or Cash Contract that adds flexibility and helps you make good
marketing decisions by protecting you against underproduction on a
Forward Contract or eliminating the risk of lower prices if you decide
to stay in the market after harvest.
Our program is very flexible and can be
fitted to your unique needs. We look forward to the chance to work
with you in developing a marketing plan that will help you reach your
goals.
