Onion Futures Are Outlawed

Planet Money has an episode about the Onion King https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2018/09/19/649273647/epis...

I met a great guy in federal prison. I won't name him just for privacy even though he died this past year.

His family was pretty big in the onion packing industry. He was in the finance industry selling 401k and other financial products to onion industry businesses. Really great guy and taught me a lot about the agricultural business. I still have a subscription to The Packer to this day.
