As harvest winds down, you are already planning for next year's crop. You'll be going over everything from anticipated market prices and the state of your equipment, to whether you should prepay for next year’s seed, chemicals and fertilizer. Before you decide anything, though, know your numbers and how all the variables – fields, crops, expenses and market prices – can impact your breakeven point.
In the middle of a tight market with such low commodity prices, knowing your breakeven point is more critical than ever. A precise and easy-to-use breakeven calculator gives you a chance to look ahead – to get a picture of your worst, average and best case scenarios – and plan for your success. A breakeven calculator can help you:
