Hedging means reducing or controlling risk. This is done by
taking a position in the futures market that is opposite to
the one in the physical market with the objective of reducing
or limiting risks associated with price changes.
Hedging is a two-step process. A gain or loss in the cash
position due to changes in price levels will be countered by
changes in the value of a futures position. For instance, a
wheat farmer can sell wheat futures to protect the value of
his crop prior to harvest. If there is a fall in price, the
loss in the cash market position will be countered by a gain
in futures position.
