ADVANTAGES

 

  • The producer receives full mill sales value, less direct costs.

 

  • BCC eliminates the outside "middle man" with overhead and profit considerations of his own.

 

  • Profit enhancing mechanisms such as weight gains, quality gains, savings in carrying charges, and government price support programs accrue to the benefit of the producer.

  • The producer benefits from professional and knowledgeable risk management that uses all available tools such as sales, futures, and options to protect the value of his crop.

  • Unequaled, prompt payments of producer proceeds are paid in cash.
