| IN555 - 11/29/2025 08:06 So you are doing more work but yet your labor and trucking decreased? I don't think you are analyzing it properly. The demand for labor and trucking might have been reduced during harvest but your overall demand for labor and trucking increased.
Its the $'s flowing in and out of the operation that matter.
If he avoids buying another truck and hiring another driver that saves a lot more $'s flowing out than the cost of him driving more miles on the existing truck during the winter when he likely has nothing else to do that would pay better.
The cost of his own labor doesn't matter unless he has something else to do at that exact moment that pays better. His cost of living doesn't increase by spending more time in the truck during the winter, if anything it probably decreases his CoL as people tend to spend less money when they're busy working.
