Helping you manage your wool price

If you need to manage your wool income then you need useful information, because you will be making decisions about the selling of you wool rather than letting it flow through the auction system.

These decisions can be as simple as setting reserves. Valuing medium merino wool is fairly easy but as the fibre diameter reduces the complexity of the market increases. What is the price of each lot and where does that price sit in relation to history? What is an achievable reserve?

Forward selling involves not only a forward contract or futures but also production risk. What is greater, the simple price risk of the wool that you plan to produce, the combined risk of the wool and futures/forward contracts or simply the production risk, getting the stuff onto the truck in time?

Independent Commodity Services (ICS) helps supply the answers to such questions. Plan your wool sales from a position of knowledge, of strength.
