    I held on to 4000 bushels of flax once, was under 6 and sold it at 20, I almost fed it to the cows when it was 6.

      Seems like everyone has a different policy... but usually there is some substantial fee to get out of the contract. (difference in price + admin fee) x shortage.


      If there isn't a fee - its because the price has dropped quite a bit below your contracted price. (if that happens call your neighbour or find someone else to fill the contract and don't cancel it with the elevator)

              They know there is SFA left out on farm, that’s exactly why

                Haven’t sold a bushel of 2024 production yet. Need something to hold down the bins with these winds since I’m too cheap to buy anchors.

                    That's one of those times where you don't say anything, just haul in your neighbour's grain to fill your contract, get paid, and pass on the payment to your neighbour. It's a wash on your books and no hassle or bargaining with the terminal.

                      What i dont get is why Cargill would even care what they buy is grain, they really need that little bit of extra ****age?
