I just did this math. I put 750 acres of beans in this year. Half was RR (some sts) and half was Liberty. The seed bill was a hair over $40,000. That comes out to $53 an acre. Now, some of them were treated for cold soils, so I can't tell you off the top of my head how that all works out (I've seen way too many numbers). I buy mine in the bulk bags not the unit bags. I think those bulk bags are 2500 pounds. That's sticks in my mind at least.

I'll also tell you that I picked up the checks from the elevators (I'm half done cutting) and it paid off the seed and spraying. I sure hope that last half yields well. We don't get the yields many do. I have had a couple hit 50 bpa and was pleased.
