I've kept pretty close records the last 3 or 4 years and to cover an actual acre by acre cost of producing the crop (tillage, planting, spraying, harvesting, and hauling it away at harvest) I've been coming in at 3.5-4 gallons per acre. Once you figure fuel for misc equipment around the yard, hauling grain from bins, pickup fuel, etc I'm pretty sure i'd be in that 5-6 gallons range.
How much diesel do you burn per acre?
