Daily Price Contract
Similar to a Fixed Price Contract for CWB grains, you can lock in a price for your CWB wheat outside of the CWB Price Pooling System. A daily flat price will be derived from a basket of U.S. elevator prices taken from locations primarily situated in Montana and North Dakota, as opposed to a CWB Fixed Price Contract that reflects world market values.
| A Daily Price Contract (DPC) provides you with: |
- A Diversified Marketing Strategy – The DPC allows you to take advantage of favourable price fluctuations present in the U.S. wheat market
- The Possibility of Higher Returns Relative to the World Market – By pricing outside of the Pool Pricing System, you can benefit from the opportunity to capture increased value in the market as U.S. supply and demand situations fluctuate
