In 2018, the total of all economic costs per acre for growing corn in Illinois averaged $875 in the northern section, $877 in the central section for farmland with “high” soil ratings, $852 in the central section for farmland with “low” soil ratings, and $814 in the southern section. Soybean costs per acre were $641, $665, $622 and $628, respectively. Costs were lower in southern Illinois primarily because of lower land costs. The total of all economic costs per bushel in the different sections of the state ranged from $3.70 to $4.33 for corn and from $8.99 to $10.64 for soybeans. Variations in this cost were related to weather, yields, and land quality. Do you know your break even price?
