What is the Crop Break-Even Calculator?
The break-even price is the lowest price at which you get back all the money you spent on your crop. Below it you lose money; above it you make a profit.
Enter your cost per acre, expected yield, expected price and straw or by-product income. The calculator shows your break-even price per quintal, the break-even yield, and how much the price or yield can fall before you make a loss.
How to use it
- Enter your area and total cost per acre.
- Enter the yield you expect per acre.
- Enter the price you expect to get.
- Add straw or by-product income, if any, and read the results.
