The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service,
Department of Agricultural Economics is conducting the 2016 Texas Custom Rates
Survey.
Each year our offices receive
many requests for current custom rate information and the latest Custom Rates
Publication. The survey and publication
are the only source to find the going rates paid for these types of
services. Questions in the survey
include rates paid/charged for specific tillage, planting, application, harvesting,
and other services or operations performed on a custom basis.
If you have knowledge of rates in your area,
and appreciate the value of publishing this type of market information, please
consider participating in the survey which can be found online at: http://agecoext.tamu.edu/crs2016
The survey will ask that you only complete the
questions that pertain to your operation, therefore most people should be able
to complete the survey in 10-15 minutes or less. The survey will be open from February through
mid-April. Your participation will help
make sure the published information is the most accurate and reliable possible. If you have any questions regarding the
survey please contact Dr. Steven Klose (sklose@tamu.edu).
