Roll Dates
Roll Dates are projected and subject to change without notice. Roll Dates are the expected dates on which the composition of the Benchmark Futures Contract is changed or ”rolled” by selling the near month contract and buying replacement benchmark contract(s).
The three futures contracts (“Corn Futures Contracts”) that are held are traded on the Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”), and are specifically: (1) the second-to-expire CBOT Corn Futures Contract, weighted 35%, (2) the third-to-expire CBOT Corn Futures Contract, weighted 30%, and (3) the CBOT Corn Futures Contract expiring in the December following the expiration of the third-to-expire contract.
