Abstract

The rates reported in this guide summarize a statewide survey conducted online and by solicitations of University of Missouri Extension specialists in the spring of 2023. We asked farmers, agribusiness firms and land improvement contractors to provide the rates they were charging or paying in 2022 for custom services, excluding the cost of materials being applied. Thank you to those who provided information — even if it was just for one activity. Fewer people respond to this survey every time it is taken – every three years. There may be fewer farmers using custom operators or fewer businesses conducting custom activities. But it is still a very popular Extension guide. The number of responses to many questions asked was too low to have statistical confidence in the results. However, the results presented here have been compared to custom rates guides in Iowa to see if our rates are in line with their rates. These results have also been compared to previous custom rates surveys to see if the direction and magnitude of changes seems reasonable.
