Abstract: type="graphical">

Risk management tools have risen up the EU agricultural policy agenda in recent years due to greater market volatility. Market mechanisms can provide a natural hedge effect that moderates variability in revenue and income but not all regions benefit from this effect to the same extent. Core producing regions tend to benefit more while peripheral producing regions with dissimilar weather conditions benefit relatively little. We quantify the strength of natural hedge effects in the EU soft wheat sector.
