I realize this is a pretty tough question depending on all sorts of factors from soil to bugs to weather, etc, but how much would it cost to prepare, seed, and take off a crop of barley or wheat from say 80 acres of flat farmland using vintage (40's - 50's) tractors and machinery? Is there sort of a rule-of-thumb as for costs per acre? A guy can rough figure out what the income might be for selling it, but who about the input costs? Can anyone help out with that, even a rough estimate would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
