| LawrenceWelk - 6/29/2024 00:07 Any Ag Banker should have enough brains to understand margin money for a hedge account. Otherwise you need a different Ag Banker. You need a separate line of credit dedicated soley to margin money/marketing. A $100 of margin money per acre is a good starting point. If it exceeds the $100 per acre it's rare. But the banker will understand and if they shut you down, you did something wrong on your end.
$100/acre is ~50 cents/bushel +/- on corn if you go all in on hedges
Market moving 50 cents is rare? Maxing out your LOC and being liquidated out of your position is a good way to lose on both ends of the stick.
