Estimating Diabrotica virgifera virgifera damage functions with field trial data: applying an unbalanced nested error component model (2009, background): “The typical cost of a soil insecticide in maize was US$44.46/ha (Duffy and Smith 2005), or slightly less than the value of the total yield loss.”
Tillage and Crop Rotation Effects on Corn Agronomic Response and Economic Return at Seven Iowa Locations (2015, unknown): “Economic Analysis The Ag Decision Maker (Duffy, 2014) was used to calculate economic returns of the various tillage systems and crop rotations in this study.”
Sustainable water management under future uncertainty with eco-engineering decision scaling (2016, unknown): “ Crop reimbursement costs were estimated as equal to the cost per acre of raising corn, $848/acre (Duffy 2014).”
Miscanthus: A Promising Biomass Crop (2010, unknown): “By comparison, the costs for continuous maize production on prime farmland in Iowa are about $150 Mg 1 in 2010 (Duffy, 2010), suggesting that perennial crops are profitable and will be economically sustainable even on prime farmland in the US. b.
