Know-Risk™ Commodity Management Software

Information plays a crucial role in today’s marketplace, but managing that information can often be a challenge.  If you are still using a spreadsheet to manage your business’s information, you may not be getting all the value out of the data you collect.  The key is having the right information at the right time in order to drive decision-making.

Know-Risk is designed to help you manage and interact with information so that you can develop risk management strategies and tactics.  This interactive information manager aggregates information from several different sources and presents it in an easily understood format, designed to enable users to make informed decisions about their risk management strategies and tactics.

Protecting customer profitability with Merchants Plus

Merchants Plus is a pricing program that allows crop and livestock producers to share in the performance of professional marketing strategies. Depending on the strategy selected, a hedging plan will be run on behalf of all participants, and the gains or losses will result in an effective ‘Merchants Plus Price’ which is used to settle your cash contracts. Merchants Plus pricing can be offered to elevators as a swap which allows the elevator to use the Merchants Plus price in their contracts with growers.
