Not necessarily. Three questions will tell you whether a report, 1-on-1 consulting, or doing it yourself fits best. Doing it yourself is a real answer.
Farmers and traders in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and the US Midwest who already sell their own grain.
Do you already sell your own grain, and do you want to keep that? If yes, you can. A report does not take the sale.
Do you want a second read of the chart, or a plan built around your own costs? A second read is the report. A plan around your costs, risk tolerance, and goals is Portfolio Consulting, priced by consultation.
Will you still place the sale? If you want someone else to execute for you, that is a broker. Klarenbach gives you the target and the signal; you make the sale.
In an August 2020 Purdue University article, James Mintert reported that just over 2 in 10 crop and livestock farms in a US survey said they work with a marketing advisor. That is a 2020 US figure, not a current Prairie one, but it is a reminder that most farms make these decisions without one.
