| The present article presents an overview of the Agribusiness System of wheat in Brazil. Departing from a methodology developed for mapping and quantifying value chains, the structure of the respective chain is presented, with the main sectors identified and quantified (revenue of the sector with the wheat chain sales in Brazil in 2002). Also, the main coordination problems were identified in the system, as well as the development of a work agenda containing a list of collective actions that should be implemented by the private initiative, in order to minimize the existing problems. It was suggested to the several members of the wheat chain the establishment of an organization, which will integrate the entire system, named Trigo-Brasil (Wheat-Brazil, for... |

| We investigate storage in the presence of backwardation and the existence of the Working curve for CBOT corn, soybeans, and wheat markets and the KCBOT wheat market using recent data, 1990-2010. Incorporating Telser’s concept of the cost of carry, we employ two measures of the spread—the percent of full carry for futures-futures and futures-spot (maximum) spreads which are adjusted for interest and storage rates. Both spreads are calculated relative to the next nearby futures contract and are matched with closest weekly deliverable stock information available at the delivery locations for the contracts. Our findings indicate that storage at a loss is pervasive both in terms of the percent of observations that exhibited storage at a loss, and the magnitude... |
