Grain Pricing Management Game

Price Risk Management: The HGCA Grain Pricing Management Game

In the difficult and volatile modern marketplace, UK farmers must find ways of maximising market returns if they are to make a profit. Testing ideas is difficult. Wouldn't it be good if farmers could run through the selling season in advance without mistakes costing them money?

The Price Risk Management Interactive Resource CD enables you to do just that, trying different sales and risk management strategies. Based on a farm producing 1,500 tonnes of feed wheat and limited storage you can:

  • Sell at diferent times of the year
  • Try some grain options
  • Vary the tonnages you sell

With a choice of scenarios, you can re-run the same year to try different strategies and develop your risk management skills against your farm budget.

Produced by the Crop Marketing department of HGCA, this business game has been tested on farmers throughout the UK. The CD is free to levy payers, to request one:
