Price Risk Management

Since ultra-poor South Africans spend up to a fifth of their income on maize alone, the demand for this commodity is price-inelastic, i.e. consumers have no choice but to absorb price increases. As such the success of procurement strategies from milling companies will ultimately have a direct impact on the financial well-being of the poor. Even though derivative instruments are available to use as counter against market fluctuations, the price risk management success of groups with a concern on SAFEX suggests that this is not achieved as yet, ultimately to the detriment of consumers. The view exists that markets are efficient and the return offered by the futures exchange cannot consistently be outperformed. This paper argues the exact opposite, since the use of the proposed futures/options strategies result in returns superior to that of the market.

Price Risk Management

Ordinary Least Squares regression was used to examine what characteristics affect the use of maize price risk management tools by a sample of large commercial South African maize producers in 1998. The use of maize storage facilities, off-farm employment, formal crop insurance, length of formal education of operators and the proportion of farm turnover from maize, all positively influence producers' use of these tools. Crop insurance thus appeared to be a complementary method of risk management. In contrast to previous United States studies, operators' self-rated score of marketing management ability was negatively related to the use of price risk management tools. Maize marketing seminars and other sources of information on managing price risk would reduce adoption costs and encourage broader producer participation
