NYSE Liffe, the derivatives arm of NYSE Euronext, picked malting barley varieties Sebastian and Syngenta AG’s Quench as eligible for delivery against futures contracts for the 2013-14 crop year, Bloomberg reported on January, 5.
The varieties picked by an expert committee are unchanged from those for the 2011-12 and 2012-13 harvest seasons, Lionel Porte, commodity-product manager at NYSE Liffe, said. For 2010-11, the eligible varieties were Sebastian and Syngenta’s Tipple.
Sebastian is a spring-barley variety grown across Europe and Quench is a spring malting-barley variety developed by Basel, Switzerland-based Syngenta.
