What is the Farm Cost per Acre Calculator?
To know if a crop is really profitable, you first need to know what it costs you. Most farmers remember the big bills but forget small costs, and those add up.
This calculator lists all common costs of one crop season: land preparation, seed, fertiliser, pesticides, irrigation, labour, harvesting, transport, rent and more. It also adds interest on the money you spend until the crop is sold. You get the cost per acre, the total for your land, and a clear breakdown.
How to use it
- Enter your total area in acres.
- Fill in each cost per acre for one season. Leave 0 if not used.
- Enter your loan interest rate and months until sale.
- See the cost per acre, total cost and the biggest costs.
