The agriculture futures provide all market participants - from farmers, producers and dealers down to the processing industry - with an opportunity to reduce the increasing price risks in their business. Investors benefit from the low correlation between commodity markets and traditional asset classes if they use agricultural futures for purposes of broader risk diversification. They can take advantage of both rising and falling price developments in the markets to stabilize or raise profits and yields independently of the capital market development.

All Eurex agricultural futures are denominated in euro and settled in cash. For this purpose, our reference prices relate to corresponding market indexes and thus transparently reflect the value of physically traded commodities. The Final Settle ment Price of a contract on the Last Trading Day equals the corresponding index’s value at a specified reference time.
