nw illinois | Just did some rough figuring on my own. Using a tanker I can maybe do 4.5 acres an hour if close to barn--Big FWA $40/hour, Labor $20/hour, Fuel $20/hour, pumping tractor + fuel $20/hour = $22.22 per acre. Lets just say a $60000 tanker 20 years 600 acres/year 0 salvage value but also figure no repairs-- $5 per acre.
Not saying you don't do it for $15 but would like to learn how. Maybe cheaper tractors and no $ for your labor? Drag line?
