HTAs are especially useful for multi-year marketing strategies, giving producers the ability to lock in futures prices further into the future than many other contract types.

Harvest Max enrollment is open now for 2027 corn and milo producers. This unique averaging contract spreads pricing over a predetermined marketing window during the season's historically strongest trading period.
Instead of receiving the closing price each day, enrolled bushels are priced at the day's high trade, with the final futures price calculated as the average of those daily highs. This contract is only available for Corn and Milo production due to the nature of the markets.
Basis remains open and can be locked in before the final pricing date. Harvest Max is designed to help diversify your marketing plan while removing some of the pressure of trying to pick the market's highs.
