JAnderson - 3/15/2024 21:15  my average spray gpa last year was right around 15gpa. guessing the water cost is something like 50 cents/acre/year. My cattle are on rural water all winter as well.




You're either doing a lot of sprayer passes or have really expensive rural water to get $.50/acre in sprayer water.

Rural water here is ~$4 per 1000 gallons.    Works out to 6 cents/pass using 15 gpa.     Not worth worrying about.



Rural water district hre is $15.92 per 1000 gal.
