Embracing hard work and innovation

Alf Nucifora always wanted to own a farm of his own.

Having worked closely with his father and siblings on the family’s Babinda farm in his early years, Alf chose to first complete a trade and worked as a contract electrician until 1994 before he purchased his first farm in the Upper Murray basin, just south of Tully.

Leave the QSL Harvest Pool at any time during the season and price more yourself using QSL's new Harvest Pool Opt Out.

Just choose to 'Opt Out' and any of your Harvest Pool tonnage which has not already been priced by QSL will be transferred to the Self-Managed Harvest Contract so you can price it yourself.

Available to QSL Direct growers from 1 May 2022.

For more information please click here, or contact your local QSL team.
Upcoming expiry: March 2022 contract

15 February is the March 2022 ICE 11 Contract Pricing Completion Date for growers using the 2021-Season Individual Futures Contract and Self-Managed Harvest Contract. This is the final day to achieve pricing allocated to this contract. Any tonnage that has not been priced or rolled by this date will be priced by QSL at the next market opportunity.
 
You can elect to roll unpriced tonnage on any working day prior to the Pricing Completion Date. To do so, just log on to your QSL Direct account via the QSL App, cancel any open orders against the March 2022 contract, and then hit the ‘ROLL TONNES’ button. 
 
There is no fee to roll tonnage, however you will incur an adjustment representing the cost associated with re-establishing your positions in the new contract. You can find an estimate of this roll adjustment on the QSL website and our Daily Price email, or by contacting your local QSL team.
