ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Marketing grains is seldom easy. Given the past seasons weather and market gyrations it may be time to refresh our thinking on appropriate marketing strategies. To assist grain producers managing price risk, Penn State Extension is offering a unique grain marketing learning opportunity at eight locations. This is your chance to join grain market expert, Dave Fogel, for a conversation on using PUT / CALL options.
