gordosd: I am glad you had a pretty good wheat crop. Just one thing. Your "profit" seems to not include any land cost other than taxes. So that is not really the total profit form the crop. You have income form the land included. So what would be an average rent in your area??? The $204 less the rent would be the true profit on the wheat crop.
I know kind of splitting hairs. It just is a touchy subject with me. A older local farmer in the 1980s, would brag around at the coffee shops of how he did not understand why the farmers where saying times where hard. He would say he made so and so on his corn crop. I confronted him on it. He did not count the land or his equipment as having any cost. He just took seed, fertilizer, fuel and chemicals as his cost per acre of crop. He was quoting making $100-150 and acre. So with the average rent being $100 at the time his numbers where not off other then he did not include all his costs. So the farmers that included land and equipment cost you where breaking even to loosing money. How it effected me and other area farmers is several of our landlords took this fool's numbers as gospel and kept pushing our rents up.
