some of our most popular contract alternatives
Hedge To Arrive
Also called a "Futures Only", Hedge to Arrives allow you to set the futures at the level you want while giving you the flexibility to adjust your delivery period if needed to manage carry and basis.
Price Accumulators
Accumulators have multiple styles, but they aren't anything magical. Accumulators allow you to price grain above the current market for a timeframe in the future. You would commit a specific number of bushels to be priced at the hedge level, knowing that if the market was to sell significantly lower, not all the bushels may be priced. You would simply deliver the bushels that were priced. Accumulators are excellent at achieving prices that would be an "offer level" to sell.
Min/Max
If you would like to set a floor in the market at a price but leave room for the market to go higher, a min/max contract may be an excellent part of your marketing strategy. The futures for the grain sold using this contract would never be lower than the floor and while you have a ceiling, it adds peace of mind knowing that I can set a floor in the market and have a chance to achieve higher prices at a lower cost than a minimum price only.
Minimum Price
Regardless of the specific format we would use to set a minimum price, it's objective is the same. The contract allows you to establish a minimum futures price to be obtained with unlimited upside opportunity.
Many more
There are many types of contracts in addition to these that you can utilize with the ultimate goal to allow you to achieve your objectives and fit the bias you have in the market. Contracts that enhance, defend or fix price, even contracts that are independently managed to arrive at a final futures value.
