The investment obligation applies to all patron-sourced rice bushels, including the seasonal pools and the rice self-pricing marketing options. The Board’s intent is to redeem new rice base capital on a 12-year rolling cycle, meaning the year 1 investment is redeemed in year 13, subject to the Board’s discretion.
The Soybean Base Capital investment obligation is $0.10 per bushel for each bushel of soybeans delivered to Riceland and marketed through the soybean seasonal pool. The Soybean Base Capital obligation does not apply to other soybean marketing options.
