Gordo, it's great that you made 204 an acre, but I'm with JDSeller on this. It's really not a fair number if you didn't include the cost of the land and equipment. I get that you cleared 204, but that's with zero land cost. Very few guys have zero land cost. I just don't like that people reading this will say to themselves, "Wow, I know a guy that farms 10000 acres, he's profiting over 2 million dollars." It's just not true. He may only be making $10/acre because of his 175 rent and equipment costs. As far as equipment costing nothing, I don't know who put that idea in your head, but again, it's not true. Even the guys getting Multi unit discounts have equipment costs. If they buy a combine for around 500000, harvest 10000 acres each year for 2 years, and trade the combine for 150000 difference on a new one, it still cost them 7.50 an acre without any maintenance and no breakdowns or repairs (once out of warranty)
