  Mr. Cassidy has worked for line companies and Government of Alberta and then created his own company that sells for individual and organizations and provides training.

Using futures tools such as puts and calls or options can provide a farmer with more income by allowing them to deliver their product earlier to avoid product deterioration and to obtain a higher price in future months, again through the futures market.  This workshop will educate producers how to track future prices on commodity markets.  “Managing Risk” will educate producers on current cash contracts, how to put the tools together and how to analyse the market in terms of data and trends.  They will also have the skills require to achieve final prices above their cost of production and therefore realize a profit.
