Subject: Perspective .....



Nevada, Iowa
"Anything sold ahead should be sold on the board and margind by the seller vs hiding behind another party."

I guess it's all in the perspective but .... in a forward contract (at least the ones I am exposed to) it appears to me that the producer is taking all the risk and it is the processor or intermediate handler is covering risk (possibly known as hiding behind another party) to control the situation.

In regards to spec activity, planting the crop is a spec trade, is it not? And finally, improving the bottom line can be affected from the sales side as well as the purchase side. Maximizing both would certainly be to one's advantage.
