Enterprise budgets for processing vegetables have just been updated with prices and information from 2016. You can use these budgets to estimate of costs and returns for six different crops: sweet corn, peas, lima beans, spinach, pickling cucumbers, and snap beans. Budgets are in Excel spreadsheets and contain a tab with estimated costs and returns and a tab where the sheet may be updated to reflect your own costs and returns.
To download the new budgets go to: http://extension.udel.edu/ag/vegetable-fruit-resources/vegetable-small-fruits-program/research-reports-fact-sheets/vegetable-crop-budgets-irrigation-cost-calculators/.
