One other place to find out about prices of custom work is to track down others doing the same work in your area and ask them what they charge. Next go to your local equipment dealer and asked what they charge for tractor, disc and plow rental rates. Ask what they charge for hour, day and week. Next make up a simple business plan detailing what your going to charge, who's and where's your market, figuer out all your costs like fuel, repairs, wages, do a cash flow statement and lastly a breakeven analysis. This is all to determine if its worth your while to even start doing custom work. Its no good if your losing money and wearing out your tractor. Best of luck
