About Dry Bulk Commodity
Dry bulk is normally a commodity which can be shipped or transported in large and unpackaged amounts. Dry cargo is made up of bulk goods, the five most important being iron ore, coal, grain, phosphates and bauxite. Other dry cargo consists of bulk materials such as non-ferrous metal ores, feed and fertilizers, and particularly a variety of goods packaged in smaller transportation units. Bulk cargo refers to any product that is not separately packaged, but rather it is loaded into a single, large container for shipment. In most of the cases, this is a commodity, such as grain or oil, where the product may be coming from more than one producer, but going to the same customer, or at least the same intermediary.
