The following tips should help make your marketing more successful. Don't market all of your production at one time - especially anticipated production. Grain in the field is not as sure as grain in the elevator. Forward price less than 75 percent of your expected production. Remember your strengths.
Most farmers prefer production to marketing.
Focus on production. Market as objectively as possible according to plans. Keep an eye on your financial position. Leverage and liquidity problems can wreak havoc on your finances and marketing plans. Having to sell to meet financial obligations is not part of the marketing plan and is not usually the best time to sell.
