You had the info I was really after, BTU's per pound. I did some lookin and found a ball park average BTU for wood is around 6000 per pound. A bit less. So if you burn say 3 face cords a year (seems to be a decent amount right???) you would be burning about 11,000 lbs of wood. That is 200 bushel of corn a year. Not too bad I guess. Here we heat for roughly 6 months so at $2 a bushel that is $400 a year or about $70 a month. However, for me it seems that since we have a large supply of good hardwood to burn it would be cheaper to use.
