Death comes to us all. Life's but a walking shadow | So if you didn't irrigate you could grow, what, a 100 bu? So the difference is 130 bushel? If you substracted the cost of the extra seed, fertilizer, pumping costs, the extra rent, taxes etc. how much of that 130 bu is profit to the water, maybe 65 bushel? So, very roughly 65 bu. of corn at $3 is $195. Is an extra $195 worth 7-10 inches of water? That makes the water worth $20-$30 per inch. |
