And guys wouldn't be looking to expand to ridiculous acreage numbers. If you lose $1,000 an acre...........just how many acres does one want?
Cheaper, yes. Substantially cheaper, that I don't know about. I suppose it depends on what one calls "substantial". Like I said before, it wasn't the current crop insurance program that lit the fuse on land prices. It was a combination of the ethanol boom/higher grain prices, down trending interest rates and govt inflation.
