Variation in yields, production inputs and production prac tices should be expected for particular farms. Budgets for all major crops produced in the area are included for two levels of management, when applicable. Crop yields are directly related to levels of management. These differences are due largely to timing of operational practices which may not be evident in the budgets. The machinery inventory is applicable to both r typical and high level management. In some bud gets custom rates, primarily harvesting, were used in lieu of the assumption that harvesting equip ment was owned. Budgets for establishing permanent type pasture grasses were prepared and used for prorating estab lishment costs in the respective pasture and hay budgets. Forage crops include expenses only be cause it is expected that the income will be derived from livestock enterprises. Land charges were based on customary land lord's crop share less his proportionate share of certain production and harvesting inputs. A per acre land charge was made using a fair market value times an interest rate when crop share was not used. 1 * ! „ 1 TEXAS EL PASO REGION Assumed Prices Paid and Received by Farmers 1/ Item Unit Price cwt. cwt. cwt. cwt. cwt. cwt. $150.00 8.50 40.00 30.00 40.00 14.00 Prices paid (1977) Seed Alfalfa Barley Cotton-Pima Co tton-Upland Grain Sorghum Wheat-Spring Custom rates Cotton (harvest Cotton (harvest Cotton (ginning, Cotton (ginning, Combining Hay (harvest) Hauling (Grain) and haul)-Pima )-Pima and haul)-Upland .)-Upland bags & t i e s ) - P i m a bags & ties)-Upland lb. lint lb. lint bale bale acre ton cwt. .10 .08 35.00 30.00 15.00 21.50 .17 Fuel and lubricants Gasoline Diesel L P Motor Oil (H D, Detergent) t) gal. gal. gal. gal.
