Northern Nebraska
About $300,000 +/- $50,000. So around $2000 per irrigated acre.

Now that depends on access to power or needing a power unit.

Most wells are electric here. Followed by diesel fuel, propane and natural gas in that order. When it was cheap some peoples used gasoline.

T-L pivots are hydraulic and while much safer for the farmer working on it. They are a mechanical nightmare if you have rolling terrain. Every other pivot is electric. The machine requires three phase power this most people also pump with electricity as well.
