New focus for grower-driven AGG Co-op

AGG Co-op used the Yorke Peninsula Field Days to host its AGM and launch a new business model focusing on high quality, cost-effective managed products, a service required by growers for the 2015/16 harvest.

AGG Co-op Chairman Andrew Polkinghorne says the directors restructured the business to place a priority on managed products which is a strength of the Co-op’s grain marketing service.

“Despite the tough trading environment experienced by many in 2014/15, our pools and managed products performed well against industry benchmarks,” he said.   

 “The steps the directors have taken to make our new business robust and have the ability to survive in a variety of global conditions is a due credit to them.

“We have re-focussed with a new business plan and initiatives and are now ready to service growers in the upcoming harvest.”

Canola Pool 14/15 over delivers to growers: NET $498

AGG Co-op’s opening Nominated Pool Return (NPR) for Canola was $485 per tonne (before AOF oil bonification’s). However, we’re pleased to advise our final net pool return to growers is $498 per tonne which includes the deduction of all transfer, storage and management fees.

With the excellent execution of sales and deliveries now complete, we made final payment on the 31st July 2015. 

Our marketing team have made the most out of strong end of season demand to capture season high prices for all pool participants.  This is particularly relevant for growers which had delivered below base 42 % oil content parcels which can be less marketable.  Combining these parcels with the higher oil contents on other deliveries has brought home the advantage for all participants in this year’s pool. 

With its inaugural L5P50 Canola offering, AGG Co-op has been able to employ a strong mix of risk management and physical execution of sales, to bring a net result that has outperformed the average market prices as recorded in Profarmer by more than $30 per tonne for the last 12 months.

We trust you are as pleased with this result as the team here at AGG Co-op, and thank you for your ongoing support of the Co-op’s outstanding performing managed products!

 

In a nut shell: It’s your grain – your new markets – your profit… your Co-op.
