FUTURE MARKET WORKSHOP: Contractual arrangements and futures trading in agricultural commodities have existed for many years. However, the use of these tools has been sporadic. As farms and firms become larger, demanding larger amounts of outside capitol, the need for stability and predictability of profits becomes increasingly important. By separating the pricing decision from the harvest period, when prices are usually lowest, average profits may be raised and the year - to - year wide variations in profit ? reduced. The hedging of agricultural commodities can be a powerful marketing tool if used properly. However, it requires training and understanding. A Futures Market Workshop will be conducted in the Conference Room of the Post Office Building starting Febraury 25, 1975 at 7:00 P.M. Any interested persons are encouraged to attend.
