Alberta Grains hosts Understanding Hedging Grains

Take your grain marketing to the next level and register for the hedging course taking place in Calgary February 10 – 11, 2025 with Jon Driedger of Leftfield Commodity Research and David Derwin of Ventum Financial Corp. We are offering a two-day beginner course and an optional one-day intermediate hedging course.

Jonathan Driedger of Leftfield Commodity Research says, ‘I don’t know if I can remember a more textbook example of when having a hedging account can make a big difference for farmers – decent future prices, massive uncertainty, and very weak basis levels for fall delivery. The set-up is there for reduced risk and better net price.’

Essential topics will include: Why Hedge? Hedging 101, Basis, Options and Real-Time marketing excercises to strengthen your farm’s stragegy.

Your registration includes: all materials, meals and a tour, tasting and dinner on night one with ToolShed Brewing in Calgary.
