However, assuming an average grain farm of 1000 acres, this could be as much as $50,000, but probably less.

So if the service is priced appropriately it might be worth it. It’s the difference between bottom shelf and top shelf whiskey.

PS. Back in the 50′s and 60′s my father inlay (now deceased) operated a 600 acre farm in northwest Illinois that put four children through private college. Today, the net profit is less than $100,000 per year, often much less, and it must be shared among the four children and the sharecropper.
