Little does he know how expensive that corn really is
Cost of fertilizer (DAP over $1100 per acre, potash around 850, and nitrogen/agrotain and later liquid nitrogen for sidedressing)
pesticides and herbicides (prices are sky high)
cost of seed and fuel (one unit of corn is easily over $80)
Take all those expenses and figure in the price of corn per bushel at the local elevator and you come out with a small profit per acre of corn
