I bet it would be jaw dropping to learn what these big guys pay for a bag of seed corn. We're paying $200+, they're probably paying less than $100. Same goes for other inputs. If they can pay $400+/acre, their COP could be half of ours.
I don't think you could be any more wrong .
Maybe I am. But if I had those kind of acres, I would not be buying from the local dealer. I'd be talking to headquarters.
