Cash Products

Cash products offer a simple way to sell your grain for cash prices.

CBH's cash products allow you to sell your grain when the price matches your expectations, and it's convenient for you to sell. Cash products give you the flexibility to receive payment almost immediately, or to defer payment through a couple of different options. 

Cash Contract

A Cash Contract is a simple and convenient pricing option available all year round. When prices reach a level that meet your business requirements, take out a Cash Contract.

  • Pricing and freight
    Standard Cash Contracts are ‘Grower Pays Freight’, however traders may choose to offer specific site-based pricing for certain commodities or grades in various port zones on a standard cash contract.  

    These prices can be found online in Pricing & Contracting via LoadNet and are priced on a site basis, meaning that the freight option becomes ‘Marketer Pays Freight’.  

    It’s important to note that these contracts are not ‘Site Select’ contracts, and growers who utilise a ‘Marketer Pays Freight’ standard cash contract can use Quality Optimisation for wheat and are not locked in to ‘Site Select’
  • Why use a Cash Contract?

    When you take out a Cash Contract, you will receive a guaranteed price for the tonnes you have committed to the contract.

    At harvest, deliver and nominate your grain within the delivery period and payment will be made within three business days from the day of nomination**.

  • Key Features
    • Available all year round
    • Available for standard grade* wheat, oats, lupins, canola and barley
    • Minimum contract size is 25 tonnes
    • Delivery period 1 October – 31 December
    • Contract tolerance +/- 0 per cent
    • Three-day payment terms from day of nomination**
    • Canola – uncapped oil bonus for every percent of oil content above 42%. All other commodities are flat price.

Deferred Payments Contract

A Deferred Payment Contract offers the opportunity to sell your grain for cash but defer payment until the future.
  • Why use a Deferred Payment Contract?
    CBH offers two options for growers who wish to sell their grain for cash but defer payment.

    Deferred nomination and deferred payment (July)

    This is where the nomination of grain and the payment is deferred. Growers lock in a price, and any available premium and the contract is issued with a delivery in the future. Payment is received within three business days following nomination via LoadNet between 1 – 5 July.

    Please note: Commodities available for deferred nomination and deferred payment option will depend on trader appetite.

    Standard Nomination and Deferred Payment (July)
    This allows growers to lock in a price and any available premium and nominate as per usual during the standard cash contracting delivery period. Payment is received within three business days of 1 July.

    Standard Nomination and Deferred Payment (March)
    This allows growers to lock in a price and any available premium and nominate as per usual during the standard cash contracting delivery period. Payment is received within three business days of 1 March.

HarvestMax - lupins and oats

A new product that offers better pricing opportunities and helps maximise returns for oat and lupin growers.

  • Why use HarvestMax?

    We understand that forward contracting lupins and oats comes with pricing and production risks and have designed HarvestMax to provide added flexibility so growers can contract with confidence.

    HarvestMax allows growers to lock-in the highest oat or lupin price published by CBH over 12 weeks from September, so you can trust you’ll receive the best value for your grain. 

  • How it works
    • Growers express interest in either of the below HarvestMax products:
      - Fixed grade OAT1 contract
      - Fixed grade LUP1 contract (paraquat-free)
    • Growers lock-in at least 200 tonnes in an OAT1 or LUP1 HarvestMax contract.
    • Growers receive the top price published on the CBH Group Daily Contract Bid Sheet between 1 September and 25 November 2025 for all contracted HarvestMax tonnes.
  • Product details

  • Washout options
    1. There is no cost if washout is completed before the pricing period.
    2. Once the pricing period begins, growers can washout 50 per cent of their original commitment at no cost.
    3. If you want to washout more than 50 per cent of your committed tonnes during the pricing period, a nominal $5.50/t washout fee will apply.
