Hi Andy,

I don't know if you noticed this message that I posted last night:

When my students crunch the numbers for their corn production systems using the calculator attached to the above message, the per acre totals are normally 30-50 GDFE (gallons of diesel fuel equivalent) with N fertilizer and grain drying being the largest energy costs.
