High-Profit Farm Has Large Volume

Howell notes 1954 data show 952 high profit farms earned $8,863 more per farm than 362 low profit farms. High profit farms yielded $7,897 net management return, while low profit farms lost $399. They averaged 24 more acres harvested, $4,204 more feed and livestock cash expenses, and produced more grass, pigs, cattle, and hens. High profit farms spent $1,424 more yearly, about $5 more per acre, yet earned $34 more per acre in net income. Volume and yields drive income when expenses largely align.
