Economic Results – what does all this mean to the grower?
Returns and profits largely parallel yields presented. Relative values are given below as actual dollar values will vary with market prices and labor techniques (mechanical versus manual harvesting, etc.). Profits increase greatly with 3 to 4 years of bahigrass pretreatments.
Our data suggest that organic growers that improve soil quality with sod based rotation may realize increased annual profits of 40-80%!!!
