Which Farm is More Profitable?Farm A: 1000 Acres
• 1 Ton Soil Loss @ 0.5% Organic Matter (OM)= 100,000 lbs. OM on 1,000 Acres
• 100,000 lbs. OM = 60,000 lbs Organic Carbon• At Normal Carbon:Nitrogen Ratio = Nitrogen Equivalent of 50,000 lbs• Estimated Cost of Nitrogen @ $.50 / l b. • $.50 x 50,000 lbs. = $25,000 or $25 / Acre to Replace Lost Nitrogen
Farm B: 1000 Acres
• .5% Organic Matter Gain = $25,000 Gain, by Above Calculations
