This course takes an in-depth look at the importance of wool price risk management and hedging principles. The content covers types of risk, risk management products, strategies and analysis in relation to the wool industry and shows how a better understanding of these elements can enable an increased uptake of forward contracts and lead to improved market signals. This in turn could be of significant benefit to all woolgrowers and other participants in the wool industry pipeline.
In this course you will also explore examples of Australian agricultural innovation, both pre- and post-European settlement, and identify the role the wool industry has played in promoting these innovations.
A long history of investment in research and development by the wool and sheepmeat industries means much of the information, technologies and tools already exist to allow sheep and wool producers to significantly increase their productivity, profitability and sustainability.
Making More From Sheep (MMFS) is a best-practice package of management information and tools for Australian sheep producers, developed by Australian Wool Innovation (AWI) and Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA).
This high-level Making More From Sheep course complements the full package of resources and provides a flexible and easily digestible online learning format for a cross-section of stakeholders in the sheep and wool industries who are looking for a foundational overview of the best-practice principles that sit behind a sustainable and profitable sheep and wool operation.
