Abstract

A recent analysis using futures hedges showed that portfolios of marketing strategies provided soybean producers higher, less risky expected returns. However, soybean options have recently become available to producers. Incorporating options strategies into portfolios of marketing activities improved the risk efficiency of expected returns by as much as 6.7 percent.
