World Agriculture:
Managing Volatility, Risk, and Exposure in an Era of Scarcity
Agricultural producers, agri-businesses,
retailers, and trading companies face significant challenges with current market volatility, and it doesn’t appear to be letting up anytime soon. Increased world population, agricultural production, resource scarcity, and climate changes all play a part. This white paper written by Commodities Now
editor Guy Isherwood and sponsored by software solution provider SolArc delves into various agricultural market issues during an uncertain time and explains how a comprehensive CTRM solution can assist companies as they mitigate market risk and exposures. Feeding a burgeoning world population and
the processes associated with it is one of the biggest challenges of the 21st
century. With
unprecedented pressure being put on land and water resources, CEOs and boards of food and agriculture (F&A) companies are contemplating how best to position their businesses in response to the structural changes this will bring. Assembling and coordinating the right mix of expertise and management systems for the F&A supply chain – in sourcing, production, trading, risk management, logistics, processing and marketing – continue to be significant challenges. Companies, now more than ever, must better
manage their businesses: more efficiently and effectively. A process to mitigate the risk and exposure as well as control costs and have visibility into the company supply chain is the objective. The role of systems, data and reporting
mechanisms is critical. The complexities and interconnections in the agri-marketplace require robust trading and risk management systems and their associated reporting and logistics requirements. SolArc software is used every day by leading
growers, processors, marketers and financial institutions to trade, hedge, move, reconcile and account for the physical and financial transactions that are the core of their business.
