Cost Of Forward Contracting Hard Red Winter Wheat

  • Brorsen, B. Wade
Abstract
Two methods were used to estimate the cost of forward contracting hard red winter wheat. One hundred days before delivery, the estimated cost of forward contracting ranged from six cents/bu. To eight cents/bu. Thus, further evidence is provided that the cost of forward contracting grain is not zero.
