dun,
Do you know if he included the land value(minus appreciation of land value)... in is numbers?
We come up with $26.00 per bale without the land. We used costs of preparing land for seedbed; assume 3 years of production with annual maintenance costs per acre....and $3.00 for diesel/oil for this year...for cut/rake and bale....based on 6.... 12-1400# bales per acre.
