Like Doug, mine was down also. 2009 average sale was $1,400 and in 2010 it was $1,015 but my gross was down 50% from the previous year. Invoices were almost identical.
According to my Quickbooks it is $1,352.95. I start a new "company" each year so I have no idea if this is up or down.
I do know that bean prices are going to hit $15 soon and I have 62K bus in storage, so I am waiting for that.
You have to take in account the seed, fuel, property taxes, chemicals. But yeah, it was a good year. You know the seed I now use is around $250 per acre, and the chem is costing about that. Plus I run a pivot to water so the fuel to run that and the water rights payment. BTW, I have two mailboxes so I do get two sub payments from uncle sam that REALY help out, thank you very much!
Also the $400K combine I just got..it costs ALOT to feed you people!
