Tools and Strategies
Flexi Grain’s expert grain traders take advantage of volatility in the International and Domestic grain markets from the moment your crop is sown, without inherent risks.
This actively managed marketing strategy provides growers with exposure to both pre and post-harvest grain markets whilst mitigating wash-out risk.
Minimise Risk.
Maximise Value.
Flexi Grain is a grassroots pool manager focused on maximising grower returns, while minimising price risk. Pre-harvest pricing opportunities may be managed by option and/or basis management strategies.
Options may be executed over a range of grain and fx futures markets including Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), Kansas City Board of Trade (KCBT), Euronext (Matif), and the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).
Harvest and post-harvest pricing opportunities are managed by physical and/or derivative management strategies.
