ARCANUM — Arcanum MVCTC FFA members recently competed in the Ohio FFA Grain Merchandising Contest. The purpose of the Grain Merchandising Contest is to stimulate interest in the area of grain merchandising and to make students aware of the complex decision-making process associated with merchandising agricultural products.
Arcanum MVCTC FFA members, Isaac Smith, Luke Brinksneader, Brody Williams, Landon Haney and Anna Loxley, completed the online test contest on Jan. 26. During the online contest, students were given 50 general knowledge questions about grain merchandising and ten problem solving questions. The questions included puts, calls, basis, hedging and other grain merchandising scenarios.
