QCS offers the industry’s most effective and straightforward GEI marketing.
QCS growers can choose the level of control they want to have over their GEI sugar pricing outcomes.
Growers who would like QCS to make pricing decisions on their behalf can combine our ‘QCS to Decide’ forward pricing option with the default in-season pricing mechanism, the QCS Short Term Pool. In the Short Term Pool QCS manages in-season production risk on behalf of growers.
Those growers who like to have control over their forward pricing decisions, but prefer to leave in-season pricing to QCS, can set their own forward pricing levels using our GIPO option while also participating in the Short Term Pool.
And growers who want to do all their own pricing (less their US Quota allocation) can elect to use QCS Grower Managed Pricing, where growers manage their own price risk.
