Saskatchewan, big whitetail country!!! | 2 an acre, not including to market. No-til, land is custom sprayed.
I have known since I was 16 what it cost me to farm with all the inputs, that is the year I started on my own after dad died, and that year I filled my own tanks up. Found out real quick! The difference between knowing, and not knowing, is that some guys are "babied" by pops, or given the inputs outright the first year, or part of a family corp. and so they do not get a clue as to what goes on, as they don't write the checks. I have several neighbors whose start in farming was an entire years worth of inputs on dads dime! No wonder few have a grasp... |
