Looking for a tool to diversify your marketing? This may be the contract for you. We look at seasonal prices for both corn and soybeans and offer an old crop and new crop pricing structure. Sign up bushels for both programs on or before February 10th, 2023.
There is a minimum of 1,000 bushels to sign up to guarantee these bushels are sold. Prices a set number of bushels every day. There is a $.02 per bushel fee.

Potential Drawbacks:
Looking for a bonus? This is a contract we offer off and on throughout the year. This contract will pay you extra on your new crop corn or soybeans. The bonus you would receive on new crop grain when sold would be an additional $.25-.40 per bushel on corn and $.35-.60 cents per bushel on soybeans. You then have an additional offer on new crop for the same amount of bushels versus deferred futures of your choice at levels above current values. Price later bushels stored at CFE qualify as well as any on farm grain that has not been sold.
Advantages:
Potential Drawbacks:
This contract allows the producer to price their grain at today’s cash price and receive a 70% cash advance. This contract allows you to stay open on the market until May futures. There is a minimum of 5,000 bushels. Any amount of bushels total can be sold but needs to be in 1,000 bushels increments. There is a $.07/bushel maintenance fee with Extended Price.

Looking for a contract that will help manage risk? This gives you the ability to lock in favorable future market prices and leave the basis open. HTA fees through Dec 23′ of .05/bushel on corn and through Nov 23′ of .08/bushel on soybeans. HTA contract fees 2024 of .06/bushel on corn and .09/bushel on soybeans.
Advantages:
Potential Drawbacks:
This contract gives the producer a minimum price while keeping upside potential open. We purchase calls either at the money or $.20 – .40 out of the money depending on the producer value he wants to spend. Only cost to the producer is the actual call cost plus there is no storage cost to the contract.
Advantages:
Potential Drawbacks:
Allows a producer to organize a market strategy with a standing offer to price bushels at a set price during the day or night trade.
This is a great forward contracting tool on future bushels. This allows the producer to lock in a premium over the current deferred corn or soybean market. An even amount of bushels are priced weekly during the pricing period with a possible double up of bushels. We offer values well above the current market with this contract with flexible options. No fees for current year anything over one year fees over .05 on corn and .08 on soybeans.
This is our most complex contract so please give the grain team at your local CFE location a call to talk through this contract and options.
