| Title: | A PREHEDGING STRATEGY FOR THE FEEDLOT OPERATION |
| Authors: | Spahr, Ronald W.
Sawaya, William J. |
| Issue Date: | 1981-07 |
| Abstract: | During recent years, the feeder cattle industry has experienced financial instability. This paper provides a possible marketing strategy that may help reduce this financial instability by providing a Prehedging Strategy for the feedlot operator. The Prehedging Strategy establishes a dynamic hedge on the major factors of production of the feed lot operator and is shown to provide higher average returns and lower financial risk. |
