Your budget and today's basis, turned into one number: the price you need this year to pay. Sell now or store? It'll tell you that too.
The numbers exist — they're just scattered across a notebook, a loan statement, and whatever the radio said the futures price was this morning.
Rent, seed, fertilizer, fuel, labor, insurance — tracked in a mix of spreadsheets, receipts, and memory. Break-even math is only as good as the total you started with.
CBOT futures aren't what your elevator pays. Basis is the gap — and it's easy to forget to account for it when you're checking prices on your phone in the truck.
Shrink, storage fees, and the risk of spoilage all eat into what you'd make by waiting — but almost nobody actually runs the numbers before deciding to hold.
Built around the decisions you make every week during marketing season — not a trading terminal, not a spreadsheet template.
Enter costs per acre or per head. See the exact price and yield you need to cover the season — updated the moment you change a number.
Your cash price is futures plus your local basis — always shown together, so you're never marketing off a number you can't actually get paid.
Shrink, spoilage risk, storage fees, and cost of capital — worked into one hold-even price, so waiting is a decision, not a guess.
Corn, soybeans, wheat, oats, cotton — budget by acre, price by bushel or pound.
Cattle, feeders, hogs, and Class III milk — budget by head, price by hundredweight.
Track break-even across multiple operations without juggling separate spreadsheets for each one.
No. FieldMargin Pro is a decision-support calculator based on the numbers you enter — it's not investment, trading, or commodity advice, and it doesn't tell you what to do. Always confirm marketing decisions with your accountant, lender, or a licensed commodity advisor.
At launch, futures prices come from a licensed market data feed, updated several times a day. You enter your own local basis, since that varies by elevator and region.
