Oilseeds and spices
Oilseed and spice brokers deal in commodities whose prices move daily and whose buyers are often processors and exporters with negotiated terms. Brokerage on these trades is frequently a percentage of deal value rather than a fixed amount per ton, and exporters often negotiate commodity-specific rates that differ from their general terms.
How Agro Commodity Brokerage is set up for you
Percentage rate cards
Hold percentage-of-value cards for exporters and per-MT cards for traders side by side.
Commodity-specific terms
Give a client one rate on soybean and another on turmeric without a separate client record.
Effective rate by client
See what each client actually pays as a share of deal value across all its deals.
Price against market
Compare each deal’s rate with the mandi prices recorded for that commodity.
Lead sources
See which sources, such as referrals, the mandi network or trade exhibitions, bring deals that pay.
Start with one oilseed and one spice. Load processors and exporters with their cards, including at least one percentage card and one commodity-specific card. Record mandi prices for a few weeks. Rehearse a deal in each commodity end to end, then open the client analysis and check each client’s effective rate against its card.
Agree which mandis the desk records for each commodity so the price comparison is consistent.
Features to start with
