rTEXAS MIDDLE GULF COAST

FOREWORDThe enterprise budgets for Texas Middle Gulf

Coast Region are based on estimates of yields,production input quantities, and production practices which represent the best judgment of localproducers, county Extension agents-agriculture, financial institution representatives, farm machinerydealers and others knowledgeable of the area. Variation in yields, production inputs and productionpractices should be expected for particular farms.

Budgets for all major crops produced in thearea are included for two levels of management,when applicable. Crop yields are directly relatedto levels of management. These differences are duelargely to timing of operational practices whichmay not be evident in the budgets.

The machinery inventory is applicable to bothtypical and high level management. In some budgets custom rates, primarily harvesting, were usedin lieu of the assumption that harvesting equipment was owned.

Budgets for establishing permanent type pasturegrasses were prepared and used for prorating establishment costs in the respective pasture and haybudgets. Forage crops include expenses only because it is expected that the income will be derivedfrom livestock enterprises.

Land charges were based on the customary landlord's crop share less his proportionate share ofcertain production and harvesting inputs. A peracre land charge was made when crop share wasnot used.
