Your input per acre is way higher than mine. And I have an average of 40 bushels an acre oats. I cultivate 3-4 times a year then seed, my cost is fuel and seed out of the bin. Weed control is a gamble. This year I made wild mustered silage as it grew to 5 ft tall and was choking the beans out. Got 6000lbs per acre silage. Beans are coming back enough that I may get 75 lbs an acre beans yet. $0.85 lbs for the beans when sold. rotational crop is the key for weed control, and you can't be scared to make silage on a bad year. Called diversified farming. To put nutrients back you may have to get no crop 1 year and plow down buckwheat or other crop, up to twice in that year. Pays off if the next year you get 90-100 bushels oats at $6. If everybody went to Organic the price would rise as supply would be less and demand would be higher. Double the pric of wheat and you add 10 cents to a loaf of bread.
