Grain marketing pools are an important part of modern farmers’ portfolio of grain marketing strategies. By linking together the interests of farmers and the skills and experience of SQP’s commodity management team, SQP’s grain marketing pools lead the industry in innovative features, competitive returns and security.

 

Pools work as a marketing strategy because they partner growers with experienced grain marketing professionals who manage the markets volatility on behalf of the pool participants. This allows producers to get on with the job of growing the crop with the piece of mind that the marketing process is being handled by professionals.

 

SQP has been at the forefront of innovation in relation to the provision of grain marketing pools to Australian farmers. SQP pioneered the pool contract premium concept, and has continued to develop innovative features that provide the right mix between risk management, security and returns.
