Receiving wheat, barley, canola and sorghum in more than 700 locations nationally, Emerald’s grain pools, spot (silo) prices and forward fixed price contracts are available in Western Australia through its state office, and are also distributed through UFCC.

Emerald works on the philosophy that it must provide competitive returns as a minimum – and add to that a range of useful features and payment options for the modern Australian farmer. Emerald was first to introduce the ‘Early Order Premium’ to Australian grain markets, providing growers with an additional payment for agreeing early in the year to deliver to its pools.
