Andrew Tasker

Andrew has worked in commodity, interest rate and FX markets since starting in cotton in the 1990’s.  In 2000 he moved to WA to be part of ProFarmer Advisory Services, as the grain markets started deregulating, to provide advice to growers seeking to navigate the new situation of having to hedge and market their grain.  His experience in working with growers in the cash and derivative markets lead to roles in markets with two leading agribusiness banks in Australia and then in the US .  These roles involved providing hedging products in interest rates, FX and commodities with agribusiness clients.  Now back in WA he is looking forward to applying this experience in assisting Planfarm clients hedge and market their grain at all levels of sophistication from cash marketing through to swaps and options.
