A grain exchange is a marketplace where buyers and sellers trade grain and related agricultural commodities.
Historically these were physical trading floors where merchants gathered; today most operate as electronic platforms for futures and options contracts.
The Chicago Board of Trade was the most famous grain exchange.
Wheat prices fluctuated wildly on the grain exchange.
