Producers who do not use futures or options contracts sometimes feel that they are leaving thousands of dollars on the table. If they sell their cotton, they worry that prices will increase. If they do not sell their cotton, they worry that prices will decline. The research reported in this paper shows that simple cash marketing strategies will allow producers to sell their cotton with the confidence that, over a 10 year period, they will receive an above average price. |
