I don’t care how big the note is, I care about ROI.

Landleveling? Meh,,, if you need it.

If you farm in Louisiana you need it. We don’t use the irrigation every year. We use the improved drainage EVERY year.

And? I’ve got some choice ground that never missed making a good crop when it was dryland but most assuredly made even better yields with a bit of water.

Equipment? That’s really dumb thing to buy.. lease is a much better option.

I’m not going to get into the weeds of arguing lease vs. buy with you right now, but I will clarify my statement by saying that tasks you find yourself needing done often on the farm are best brought into the operation.

LOL

Do you not understand that the note you owe digs into your ROI?... sir at the very least it has impact on how quickly you can bump that ROI.
Doesn’t really matter anyways, land prices are so high now nobody is financing without huge dowb payments.

If you farm in Louisiana you need it in most places.
We have top yields on corn cotton And beans.
Land leveling and irrigation would def cut into that ROI you just spoke of.
Drainage work was done and paid for long time ago.
If you have choice dryland sandy loam dirt you know what I’m Referring to.
