I charge 20 with an 1890 applying fertilizer and seed. I think it covers all my expenses and pays me $20 an hour. Depreciation, repairs, taxes, insurance, and fuel. Can typically average 22 acres an hour from when I leave the house till I get home.
I need to stop doing custom work or go up. It has cost me more than its made me do to putting off my own work.
