As Europe's leading exchange, Euronext offers futures on agricultural commodities such as wheat, corn and rapeseed, which are crucial financial derivatives for producers, processors, traders and investors in the primary sector. Futures enable agricultural market participants to hedge against market price fluctuations, but also allow investors to speculate on future commodity price movements. Euronext's agricultural commodity futures therefore play a crucial role in the European agricultural economy by enabling better planning and more efficient allocation of resources. Euronext's milling wheat futures contracts are among the most heavily traded in Europe. They are used to hedge against the risk of fluctuations in wheat prices, influenced by factors such as weather conditions, agricultural policies and global demand. With the increase in demand for vegetable oils and biofuels, rapeseed and maize futures have also gained in importance. Euronext futures contracts on agricultural commodities offer relatively high liquidity, making it easy to enter and exit positions with fast and efficient order execution. Regulation by the regulatory authorities ensures transparency and fairness among investors.
