I have heard that this is true of farmers and it baffles me as farmers are
not the un-educated group that they once were, often using highly technical
methods now days. With the advent of Options it would seem a hedging dream
come true for many kinds of producers.
I only wish I had known more about hedging in my life. There a many ways to
hedge even your own job income etc. In a way we are all long the economy.
I'm not sure when futures options started but for example if you were buying
on credit you could have bought put options in interest rate futures back
when interest rates were going sky high as an example.
