Subject: RE: What is a fair price for combining


SW WI
I got an almost new combine last year. There is nothing cheap about running a combine. My previous one was eating me alive in repairs. Mathematically, we should hire our harvesting done. Then comes in the timeliness. A custom guy can’t be everywhere at once.

Someday, my wife and I won’t be actively farming . I’ve told my son to strongly consider trying to find a custom guy, then.

We hire some things done that we can’t get to. My opinion…rates some guys charge go to machine itself, they are taking nothing for labor. In our situation, at times, it seems we get a hired guy, for free.
