Producers use these securities to protect against risk while speculators are more than willing to assume those risks, hoping that price movements on the underlying products will translate into healthy trading profits for themselves.".8 a"Agricultural Futures and Options provides invaluable information and advice to business-people on both sides of this equation, focusing on the influential North American and European markets. A host of agribusiness experts give you detailed explanations of the structure and workings of the agribusiness markets, covering everything from major grains and meats to coffee, cocoa, sugar, and soybeans.8 aIn addition, external factors that cause price uncertainty - from bureaucracy and weather to outright war - are examined in terms of their effects on food prices."--BOOK JACKET. 0aCommodity futures. 0aOptions (Finance) 0aProduce tradexFinance. 0aAgriculturexEconomic aspects.1 aDuncan, Richard. 0aIrwin trader's edge series.  bTOC  2lcccBK  c250096d250096  00102lcc40708NFICa40404b40404cGENd2015-09-24l0oHG6046 .A37 2000p20089192r2015-09-24 00:00:00w2015-09-24yBK
