If I remember correctly, in contrast to WTI, you will get assigned a shipping/warehouse certificate for wheat/corn in a designated elevator somewhere. You'll have to pay the warehouse a daily carry cost but don't actually have to take it out of that warehouse (you can if you want to).

That reminds me of the GS Aluminum storage warehouse story.
