You speak to refiners do you?
This is often called diversification in finance. When you have a lot of money tied into one thing it is good to sell some now for that reason even though everybody knows you won't deliver for months.
I’ve known plenty of farmers & co-ops. Big, medium, small, family. None used derivatives, at least not after trying them. A lot tried but never worked out like the finance people sold it to them.
It’s always finance people selling them, talking about the need.
It’s great there’s a market for it. You don’t need finance people mucking things up when actual delivery is the problem.
