FUTURES QUESTION PLEASE HELP Where Do You Find Out How Much To Invest Before You Can Invest On Margin?

For Futures contracts where can I find how much you have to invest?

In a certain contract on a certain commodity BEFORE I CAN INVEST ON MARGIN, and then whatever that amount is how much of the commodity can I get. For instance I am making this up but say you can buy for 1800 dollars on margin 5000 bushels of wheat which would be in actual value 13 thousand dollars? WHERE CAN I FIND THIS INFO?

Your broker should have it or did you try www.cbot.com?
