Cropping alternatives budgets 

Alberta Agriculture has released its annual forecasts of the cost of producing the most commonly grown field crops. Regional forecasts are based on current cost of production information from the AgriProfit$ program, and estimates of expected revenues and costs from various sources. 

Cropping Alternatives crop budgets are designed to help producers make better crop planning decisions. The updated budgets are soil zone specific and cover a variety of dryland and irrigation crops. 

Estimated costs for the 2023 growing season are included, but can be modified to better represent production, prices and costs specific to a farming operation.
