Futures hedges can be rolled forward from a nearby to a more distant delivery month and can be rolled backwards from a distant to a nearby delivery month. Considering a grain producer who uses futures contracts to sell his grain, $($i$)$ discuss why this producer would roll his hedge backward and $($ii$)$ create and explain two numerical examples to illustrate how a $$backward$-$rolling hedge$$ works. One example should address a case when futures prices are going up and the other example should address a case when futures prices are going down.
