The Global Industry Benchmark for More Than 135 Years

CBOT Wheat is the global industry standard and the most liquid Wheat futures contract in the world, trading the equivalent of more than 13 million metric tons each day in 2011. This is nearly four times more than the 2nd largest U.S. contract — and over 11 times more than the largest European contract.

Liquidity means that you can execute positions quickly, effectively and efficiently.
Liquidity offers more flexibility in structuring hedging strategies to meet your
timing and market needs. And when the world is facing new challenges
in Wheat risk management, liquidity provides the security you need in
order to respond with confidence.
