The model is an Excel spreadsheet that allows sugarcane producers to project sugarcane net returns for the coming year and to evaluate the impact of chagnes in yields, sugar prices, input prices and other factors on whole farm net returns and breakeven values. 2012 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model [Image: 2012 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model] The 2012 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model, an Excel spreadsheet-based producer decision tool, was developed to assist sugarcane producers in evaluating the optimal crop cycle length for various tracts of sugarcane produced on farms in Louisiana. Costs and returns are compared for sugarcane crop cycles through harvest of second and third stubble crops. Allocation of Sugarcane Planting Costs in 2012 [Image: Allocation of Sugarcane Planting Costs in 2012] This report presents estimates of sugarcane planting costs for sugarcane planted in 2011. These planting costs would be allocated to the 2012 plantcane crop and succeeding stubble crops. Prorated Allocated Planting Costs of Sugarcane in 2012 [Image: Prorated Sugarcane Planting Costs in 2012] This report presents estimates of prorated (unrecovered) planting costs for sugarcane in produciton for the 2012 crop year, including plant cane planted in 2011, first stubble planted in 2010, second stubble planted in 2009, and third stubble planted in 2008.  more articles... 2012 Projected Louisiana Sugarcane Production Costs [Image: 2012 Projected Sugarcane Production Costs] This report presents projected cost estimates for sugarcane production in Louisiana for the 2012 crop year. Cost estimates are included for all phases of sugarcane production, including seedbed preparation, planting, plant-cane and stubble-crop field operations and harvest. Whole-farm projected income and expense statements are also included for harvest of sugarcane through second-, third-, and fourth-stubble crops. Estimated Costs of Precision Grading Sugarcane Fields [Image: Costs of Precision Grading] This report presents cost estimates for precision grading sugarcane fields in Louisiana, including leveling costs on a per-hour, per-acre and per-cubic-yard basis. 2011 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model [Image: 2011 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model] The 2011 Sugarcane Crop Cycle Length Evaluation Model, an Excel spreadsheet-based producer decision tool, was developed to assist sugarcane producers in evaluating the optimal crop cycle length for various tracts of sugarcane produced on farms in Louisiana. Costs and returns are compared for sugarcane crop cycles through harvest of second and third stubble sugarcane crops. Prorated Allocated Planting Costs of Sugarcane in 2011 [Image: Prorated Sugarcane Planting Costs in 2011] This report presents estimates of prorated (unrecovered) planting costs for sugarcane in production for the 2011 crop year, including plant cane planted in 2010, first stubble planted in 2009, second stubble planted in 2008, and third stubble planted in 2007. 2011 Projected Louisiana Sugarcane Production Costs [Image: 2011 Sugarcane Production Cost Budgets] This report presents projected cost estimates for sugarcane production in Louisiana for the 2011 crop year. Cost estimates are included for all phases of sugarcane production, including seedbed preparation, planting, plant-cane and stubble-crop field operations and harvest. Whole-farm projected income and expense statements also are included for harvest of sugacane through second-, third- and fourth-stubble crops. 2011 Projected Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model [Image: 2011 Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model] The 2011 Projected Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model was developed as a farm planning decision tool for Louisiana sugarcane producers. The model is an Excel spreadsheet that allows sugarcane producers to project sugarcane net returns for the coming year and to evaluate the impact of changes in yields, sugar prices, input prices and other factors on farm returns and breakeven values. Allocation of Louisiana Sugarcane Planting Costs in 2011 [Image: 2011 Allocated Sugarcane Planting Costs] This report presents estimates of the planting costs of sugarcane planted in 2011, as well as the allocation of those costs to plant cane and stubble cane crops, for sugarcane planted in 2010. Prorated Allocated Planting Costs of Sugarcane in 2010 [Image: Prorated Sugarcane Planting Costs for 2010] This report presents estimates of prorated (unrecovered) planting costs for sugarcane in production for the 2010 crop year, including plant cane planted in 2009, first stubble planted in 2008, second stubble planted in 2007, and third stubble planted in 2006. 2010 Projected Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model [Image: 2010 Projected Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model] The 2010 Projected Sugarcane Farm Costs and Returns Model was developed as a farm planning decision tool for Louisiana sugarcane producers. The model is an Excel spreadsheet that allows sugarcane producers to project sugarcane net returns for the coming year and to evaluate the impact of changes in yields, sugar prices, input prices and other factors on farm returns and breakeven values. 2010 Projected Louisiana Sugarcane Production Costs [Image: 2010 Projected Sugarcane Costs of Production] This report presents projected cost estimates for sugarcane production in Louisiana for the 2010 crop year. Cost estimates are included for all phases of sugarcane production, including seedbed preparation, planting, plant-cane and stubble-crop field operations and harvest. Whole-farm projected income and expense statements also are included for harvest of sugacane through second-, third- and fourth-stubble crops. Click for more information...
