An Excel spreadsheet has been developed by Extension agricultural economist Jackie Smith at the Lubbock Center. See: http://agrilife.org/southplainsprofit/.

The spreadsheet allows the users to select various crops and input their operation’s data. This spreadsheet covers a multitude of summer crops including alfalfa, corn, corn silage, cotton, grain sorghum, sorghum silage, peanuts, sesame, sunflowers and more.

The user can enter prices, input costs and other variables and calculate potential returns.

This is a project of Texas AgriLife Extension an d supported by a grant from the Texas Cotton State Support Committee.

The spreadsheet can be downloaded below and is available to anyone to use.  For information, call Smith at (806) 746-6101.
