The major reason why you should invest in a Wheat ETF is, wheat is one of the most popular cereal commodity grown into the Global. It is only comparable to rice and maize in its quantity and more than 6000000 tons are harvested every year .

The only wheat only ETF that I know is Teucrium Wheat Fund. This ETF is the only one that tracks the price of wheat. The other option of investing in a Wheat ETF is buying ETFs that have wheat plus other commodities in their basket. These include some of the big names in agricultural commodities etfs:-

  • BARN – Global X Farming ETF
