With the end of the April 2021 potato forward contract in sight, it is by no means certain what the exact outcome will be. In any case, the Belgapom is already doing its bit today.
At €7,50 for the Fontane variety, Belgapom's quotation is a special one as the last quotation that participates this season for the settlement of the April 2021 contract. Due to a lack of transactions, no quotation could be drawn up for Bintje and Challenger. The increase of €1,50 has a rounded effect on the cash settlement (CS) of €0,20.

Transactions at a higher price level also became visible in the Netherlands this week. For example, Innovators were traded for €9,50 and Agria for €9,00, all for speedy delivery. This means that PotatoNL will also step up its game next Monday, which will also give the CS a boost from the Netherlands. It will be important how France, Germany and the PCA/Fiwap will record next week.{{dataviewSnapshot(2_1619164936)}}
