PriH ind light BALTIMORE, MP. the cost of production can be ascertained for any given crop year by substitut- ing current rates for labor, seed, water, etc., for those given in the bulletin. The cost data, therefore, are valuable for purposes of comparison. / In general, the bulletin says, as acre- age increases, acre cost decreases, while as yield increases acre cost increases, although cost per ton decreases. Labor was the principal cost item, amounting to fifty per cent of the total cost of production, while the use of the land amounted to thirty-five per cent. The more important factors which enter into the cost of production are labor, interest on land or rental, seed, water, taxes and insurance. While these fac- tors expressed in terms of money values are variable, such items as hours of man labor, hours of horse labor, pounds of seed, hours of use of equipment, and amount of fertilizers required do not fluctuate appreciably.
