Macon, IL | 400 acres, 95% no-till. All corn and beans.
Have a 500 gallon tank I fill every spring, refill before fall, and usually run out with a few days left. So maybe 1200? More in heavy corn years-less in bean years. I only use anhydrous every few years-would be a few more gallons then.
So my wide ranging guess would be 3-4 gallons per acre, depending on crop and year.
That includes doing usually about 1/2-3/4 of my own spraying, mowing, running auger, etc. Does not include road fuel to haul to town or pickup. | |
