ND | JD4230 - 10/23/2025  09:32  I try to project a $100 profit.   I usually end up $50 or less, sometimes more on the average across all acres by the time I get ALL the farm related expenses in the spreadsheet.  I farm some tough acres that most say I can't make money on. Every year I have been able to so far. Sometimes it's not much some years it's pretty decent.  If I farm something and loose money 3 years in a row or 3 of 5 I give it up.   But I'm an STO.  
  Tell us more.  Which crops, how do you allocate mach. costs, overhead costs like your labor, etc.? |
