Commodities II: Trading Agricultural Commodities

Luc Nijs

Chapter 15 in The Handbook of Global Agricultural Markets, 2014, pp 334-400 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Many economic factors, including temperature, precipitation, changing customer needs, substitute products, and new market participants, are far beyond our control. However, they are key to determining the supply and demand for vital commodities such as corn, wheat, soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, rice, and oats.2 As a result of continuously changing global supply and demand for grains and oilseeds, commodity prices can vary substantially from day to day.
