Futures Market Uncertain By JOAN ISTAS
Franklin County agricultural agent Bob Bozworth explains futures are like weather but attract interest. Roy Fredricks notes contracts commit to deliver or receive specified quantities at a place and month with price set by public pits. Hog futures rise, feeder cattle and grain sorghum trade is limited, with grains unlikely soon. He warns amateurs and professionals both risk money, though pros often win.
