The
highest base price doesn’t always result in the
highest value for your crop.
The premiums and discounts applicable to each contract
need to always be taken into consideration before delivering
wheat into a contract or making a sale.
This
is highlighted by the following figures, which were
taken from actual contracts held by the one grower for
the 2001/2002-wheat harvest.
