To those who either make some money from their tractor hobby or plan to. I have purchased a 661 ScapeRake (Harley type rake) and hope to make at least enough to pay myself back the investment. If I harley rake a yard and buy materials which is a preimum fescue at 10 pounds per 1000 sq. feet and use my straw blower at the rate of one bale per thousand sq feet. would 5 cents a square foot seem reasonable? My costs for the seed & straw are almost $15 per thousand sq. feet. I know that some of this will be dependent on the area of U.S. but any input would be appreciated and will go a long way toward helping me determine a fair & customary pricing structure.
