S Illinois
How much of an allowance are you making for productivity gains? Would it be a better calculation to base it upon income the acre returns rather than a pure bushels of corn as that acre can raise more corn than it did in 1980?

Edit: In 1980 locally 100 bushels was a decent crop. Price would have been roughly $2.25. Today that number is 200 bpa @ $4.50. So gross returns are $900/acre vs $225 45 years ago.
