How can farmers use wholesale prices?
To see what their product is worth on different markets, choose where and when to sell, check offers from buyers and follow how prices move through the season.
Compare the same product, grade and pack across nearby markets and over several weeks rather than one day. Remember that a wholesale price is not what a farmer receives: transport, packing and the trader’s margin come off it.
Husfarm’s tools help with this: where to sell, a price check for an offer you have received, and selling windows that show how prices moved in past seasons. Free e-mail alerts tell you when a price crosses a level you choose.
