Furrow. $400 with $270 of fert cost. Everything else only cost $130! Maybe $550-$600 an acre is more like it. Just trucking cost into the elevator would be $25 an acre

Only 4-1/4" of rainfall from May 1 to September 5......

Amazing yield for a drought.

Vvalk , yup , that should have been $500 ish.
I also agree without smoke not sure if it would have happened.
2015 was an odd year ,very good sub soil to carry crops, dry enough for low disease , smoke to buffer flower blast , virtually no bug pressure and decent rain in August to fill crops . This set up may never happen again across a wide area.
All it takes is for one or two things not to line up and 25% can be lost in a hurry.

I like to know how his other crops did in that same area the previous four years.
