IntroductionThis guide has been established to provide approximate costs for renting equipment or obtaining custom farming operations from another farmer.

The guide is applicable for two different situations. One is to suggest an equitable price for both parties when one farmer either rents a piece of equipment from another farmer or hires the other to do a farming operation (e.g., seeding, spraying, harvesting, etc.). In this situation the period of rented operation is usually relatively small in proportion to the use by the owner. The other use is when farmers share equipment and need to establish the value of the machinery and/or farming operation that is being contributed to each farm.

CautionNearly every situation has circumstances and conditions which are unique. This guide cannot address every situation. It is up to the individuals to recognize special circumstances and make suitable adjustments to cover the differences. This guide also makes many assumptions that can have a large impact on the suggested rental and custom rates (e.g., annual hours of use, financing costs, etc.) It is the responsibility of both parties to agree to acceptable terms before entering into a contract.

MethodologyOne of the most critical steps in establishing a rental rate is defining the cost of equipment ownership and the cost of operating and maintaining the equipment. Since it is likely that some factors will change for every situation, it was necessary to develop the following set of assumptions that form the basis for calculating costs.

Cost of ownership includes the cost of depreciation of the equipment due to use and years in service. Cost of ownership also includes an investment cost (i.e., the cost to borrow money to purchase the equipment and/or the lost interest revenue if that money had been invested), and housing/insurance costs. The cost of ownership also includes a margin to cover unexpected incidentals or fluctuations in equipment costs. To generate a suggested rental rate on a $/hr basis, the cost of ownership was tallied for the life of the equipment, then the total hours of use over the life of the equipment was estimated to generate a rental rate on a $/hr basis.

Operating costs include repair and maintenance (broken and worn parts, oil, filters, and labour for repair and service), and fuel use. In addition, there are operating labour costs and a margin to cover unexpected incidentals and specific conditions that affect operating costs.

AssumptionsIn all cases it is reasonable to assume that rented machinery is in good repair and is capable of performing the intended task in the same manner and at the same productive rate as similar machines of equal specification, ratings or category regardless of age.

Cost of OwnershipEquipment Depreciation: The cost of equipment depreciation accounts for purchase price, salvage value, and years of service (also called optimal life).

In this guide, the purchase price is based upon the average of the base list price and the list price for that machine with all available options. For each piece of equipment and size category listed in this guide, a significant effort was made to gather information from a minimum of two manufacturers. Note that all purchase prices used in this guide are manufacturer’s suggested retail prices (MSRP).

3

The years of service (or optimal life) is defined as when the equipment value has declined to 1/3 of its original value. Therefore, the salvage value is assumed to always be 33 per cent of the original purchase price, but the years of service varies for each piece of equipment. In reality, a machine’s years of service depends on many factors and may vary greatly in years and hours. The optimal life and estimated annual hours of use for all equipment used in this guide is listed in Appendix D.

For this guide, the depreciated value (purchase price – salvage value) is split equally among the years of service of the equipment because, after the first year of use, most machinery depreciates at a fairly consistent rate over the next 10 to 15 years (with typical use). Note that when calculating the depreciated value for tax purposes (capital cost allowance), the depreciated value changes from year to year depending on the allowable rate for each class of equipment. Most farm equipment falls under class eight or class 10 which allows an annual depreciation rate of 20 per cent and 30 per cent, respectively. This means that the depreciated value is relatively high over the first few years of ownership and steadily decreases until the equipment has little value. This length of time (optimal life of equipment) is not defined by the capital cost allowance. The total depreciated value using either method (equally split among the years of optimal life or based on capital cost allowance rates) will be relatively close if a reasonable optimal life of the equipment is assumed.

Financing Cost: It has been assumed that 50 per cent of the initial price is covered by the value of a trade-in and/or a cash payment with the remaining 50 per cent financed. It is also assumed that the loan will be paid back through equal biannual installments over seven years. The cost to borrow 50 per cent of the purchase price was based on an average interest rate for equipment loans with a seven-year payback. This annual borrowing rate is set at six per cent. The financing cost also includes an opportunity cost on the interest that could be earned if the down payment was invested in the markets rather than equipment. This opportunity rate is set at 1.5 per cent annually and is compounded monthly.

Many producers are able to secure lower interest rates or have different payback schedules. These parameters can be accommodated in the online calculator that allows producers to enter user-specific information to generate more accurate rental and custom rates.

Insurance and Housing: It is reasonable to expect that equipment owners will carry suitable insurance against accidental damage and for liability. Suitable housing is also a reasonable measure for maintaining equipment value and performance. These annual costs have been set at one per cent of the original purchase price of the machine.

Operating CostsRepair and Maintenance (R&M): Each machine’s annual usage is typically measured in hours. Routine maintenance such as oil, lubricants and filters, as well as component wear or damage, is associated with hours of use regardless of when they occur over its life. Early in its life repairs due to component failure are not usually as high as later. However, during its life repair expenses will occur. Averaging the lifetime maintenance costs on a per hour basis provides a fair distribution of the repair costs. For this document, the average yearly basic maintenance and repairs have been added to what would be considered one major repair during the equipment’s optimal life. In the guide, these repair costs are represented as a repair rate (%). This repair rate is the total cost of repairs and maintenance over the optimal life of the equipment divided by the purchase price. The repair costs are divided by the hours accumulated over its optimal life to represent these costs on a $/hr basis.

Note that average repair and maintenance costs do not include extraordinary events brought about by extreme conditions, abuse, or accident.

Fuel costs: Fuel cost is dependent upon fuel market price and can fluctuate dramatically. In this guide, the diesel fuel price is set to $0.819/L based on current market prices and the removal of the five per cent Goods and Services Tax (GST) as this is an allowable business deduction for fuel. This fuel cost also accounts for the removal of a portion of the provincial fuel tax which farmers and custom operators are both eligible for as a Fuel Permit Exemption Holder.

4

Any power unit’s fuel use is highly dependent upon the load (percentage of available power being used) and duty cycle (percentage of time at particular loads). To determine the cost based on average fuel efficiency, a 75 per cent load is assumed. For alternative loads, fuel usage can be determined by using charts in Appendix E.

The selection of the power unit and the operating conditions (yield, moisture, soil type, terrain etc.) will also affect fuel use. This means that for similar tasks there can be a wide variation in fuel cost. For this reason, it is fair if the renter supplies or purchases fuel separately from the rental rate. A fuel cost estimate has been included based upon typical use and should be used only as a ball park indication of what fuel cost might be.

Labour Rate: The labour rate has been set at $22 per hour based on the labour market in the agricultural sector in western Canada. This rate will vary depending upon availability and the individual’s experience and skills. If more accurate labour costs are needed to reflect the varying skill levels required for different operations, producers can use the online calculator that allows users to input specific values for the labour rate for each operation.

Margin: When performing custom farming operations, conditions can be unpredictable. To account for unexpected cost increases brought about by difficult situations, it is customary to include a margin (or cushion) in the estimated custom rate. This margin has been set at 15 per cent to coincide with typical industry practices. For machinery rental, the margin is applied to both the ownership and repair and maintenance costs. For custom rates, the margin is also applied to labour and fuel costs. It should be noted that this margin does not cover overhead costs or other costs associated with business endeavors, nor does it cover the costs of a catastrophic breakdown.

Work Rate: Instantaneous work rates are calculated based upon the implement’s working width and its travel speed. However, in all field operations there is a difference between the instantaneous work rate and the average work rate accomplished over several hours. This is referred to as field efficiency. Field efficiency can vary greatly depending upon work conditions (field size and topography, soil or crop conditions, suitability of the equipment for the task, and availability of support equipment). For this guide, a field efficiency of 80 per cent has been chosen and applied to all tasks.

Using the GuidePer acre rate: Equipment rental or custom rates are based upon the addition of all yearly costs divided by the estimated annual hours of use. The hourly rate ($/hr) divided by the work rate (acre/hr) yields a cost per acre rate. The work rate accounts for equipment width, travel speed and the field efficiency of the operation. The $/acre rate is often used because it fixes the renter’s cost and allows the owner/operator to adjust the operation to the conditions. This may mean either going slower to minimize machine damage and operator stress in difficult conditions or being able to go faster in favorable conditions without losing revenue.

Hours of use impact: When machinery is shared between cooperating farmers, a cost often needs to be assigned for the usage of each machine to define the value of its contribution. The annual hours of use will greatly influence the $/hr rate. When yearly costs are divided by low hours of use the $/hr increases significantly and high hours of usage reduces the $/hr. This method tends to exaggerate the difference because it does not consider the effect on retained value which is often determined by the machine’s total hours. To achieve a fair evaluation, the effect of varying annual hours of use on the salvage value must be taken into account. Again, producers wishing to use their own value for annual hours of use or salvage value can do so in the online calculator.

Online calculator: An online calculator is also available on the Ministry’s website which allows the user to enter individual information. Using the online calculator allows producers to enter user-specific information that may have a large impact on the rental or custom rate (e.g., interest rate, purchase price, annual hours of use, labour rate, etc.). The calculator can be used for any piece of equipment (not just those listed in the guide or in the drop-down menus) provided the user has values for purchase price, salvage value, annual hours of use, etc.

Factors to Consider When Custom HiringCustom hiring is a business arrangement. The terms of the arrangement should be written in a formal agreement. If unwritten, the terms are more likely to be misunderstood in case of a dispute. The following factors should be considered in a custom hiring agreement.

Timeliness: Significant loss can occur if an operation is not started or completed on time. To facilitate planning, a custom hiring agreement should include a schedule of operations for both parties. For example, when the custom combiner is picking up swathed grain, the schedule would outline time periods for swathing by the owner and combining by the custom operator. Such a schedule would be subject to weather conditions and crop maturity.

Operations: The parties should write into the agreement the exact operations to be performed by each party and the machine, materials and labour to be supplied by each.

Rate Schedule: The custom operator should stipulate the rate for each operation to be performed on the basis of acreage, time (hour, day, and week) or total operation performed.

Management: A custom hiring agreement should ensure that the custom operator will employ acceptable management practices in his/her operations.

Terms of Payment: A custom hiring agreement should stipulate terms of payment for custom operations. As well, the custom operator should bill the client upon the completion of each custom operation. The bill should indicate actual units (e.g., hours, acres, etc.) completed, the rate charged per unit, the total charge and payment due date.

Termination: A minimum period for notice of termination should be included in a custom hiring agreement. A penalty should be stipulated for unjustified termination within the term of the agreement.

Insurance: A custom operator may be considered differently than a farmer when insuring. It is advised that this point be clarified with the insurance company if one considers doing custom work or renting equipment.

New Information for 2018-19 GuideThe custom rates presented in this guide are not intended for commercial custom operators (e.g., custom sprayers). The rates in this guide are to be used as a guideline for cost recovery of equipment from farmer to farmer, not as a guideline for costing for a business. Business costs include extra liability insurance, overhead, skilled labour, etc. that will add to the cost for commercial custom operations.

The assumptions and calculation methods for the 2018-2019 guide are generally the same as those used in the previous guide, with the following exceptions based on the current market and industry practices:

• Diesel fuel price decreased from $0.929/L to $0.819/L • Loan payback compounding frequency changed from monthly to biannually• Annual interest rate for equipment loans increased from 5.5 per cent to 6 per cent• Annual opportunity rate on investments increased from 1 per cent to 1.5 per cent• Labour rate increased from $20/hr to $22/hr• CAD:USD exchange rate changed from 1 CAD$ = $0.777US$ to 1 CAD$ = 0.785US$

All purchase price information included in this guide has been updated and reflects purchase prices listed in 2017. Equipment that is not commonly rented was removed from this guide.

Additionally, many of the equipment size categories were merged or removed. Most notably, all small two-wheel drive tractors less than 100 hp were removed from the guide. Some small implements (e.g., manure spreaders, post pounders, etc.) require less than 100 hp for operation but the power unit cost used for these small implements in this guide is based on the smallest available power unit (100 hp two-wheel drive).

The online calculator can be used for any piece of equipment not listed in this guide provided the user has information related to purchase price, salvage value, annual hours of use, etc. The calculator can also be used to determine custom rates with appropriately sized power units if the user knows or can determine the hourly rate for a smaller power unit.

Annual hours of use: 200Includes appropriately sized air tank (<550 bu for small, 550 bu for medium and >550 bu for large drills). Approximately 10 bushels of air cart capacity to 1 ft. of air drill (i.e. 40 ft. wide air drill would require about a 400 bushel capacity air cart).

The power units for all air drills with independent openers are four-wheel drive tractors. Note that the smallest four-wheel drive tractor available in this guide is 350 hp, so power unit cost for equipment that requires a smaller power unit may be over-estimated. Power unit cost includes fuel, labour and margin for tractor. Power unit size (horsepower and hydraulic pressure requirements) will vary for each condition (e.g. soil type, implement type, etc.), so ensure that the power unit size and cost is appropriate.

Air drills, similar to air seeders, use a tillage tool bar, a towed commodity metering cart, pneumatic seed and fertilizer delivery systems, and soil-engagement tools for seed and/or fertilizer placement. However, unlike air seeders, the toolbar is supported by on-row packer gangs at the rear of the unit, and castoring wheels in front connected through a parallel linkage. Depth control is achieved through hydraulic adjustment of frame height through this linkage. Typically air drills are equipped with a floating hitch that pivots at the toolbar mainframe, minimizing tractor hitch weight, and maximizing downforce to the soil-engagement tools. Seed opener tools are commonly spoons, knives discs and paired-row tools, but rarely sweeps, as soil disturbance is generally targeted not to exceed the footprint of the on-row packer wheels.

An air drill with independent depth control openers utilizes a tool bar frame supported by wheels ahead of and behind the main frame a towed commodity metering cart, pneumatic seed and fertilizer delivery. Hydraulic, independently-controlled shank assemblies complete with gauge wheel packers are fixed to the toolbar frame. Seed/fertilizer placement depth is controlled through adjustment of the gauge wheels, and packing pressure is regulated with hydraulic force. Either hoe or disk openers can be mounted to the shank assemblies, depending on the manufacturer of the implement. Independent depth control openers offer the advantage of improved ground-following capabilities, and precision seed/fertilizer placement depth control.Seeding

Air Hoe Drills are air drills that use soil engagement tools that plow an opening into the soil for seed and/or fertilizer placement. There are several different types of tools on the market that fall into the Hoe drill category. The specific type of tool used depends on the shank or tool holder used, the amount of allowable soil disturbance and seed placement options.

Annual hours of use: 200 Includes appropriately sized air tank (<550 bu for small, 550 bu for medium and >550 bu for large seeders). The power units for all air seeders are four wheel drive tractors. Note that the smallest four wheel drive tractor available in this guide is 350 hp, so power unit cost for equipment that requires a smaller power unit may be over-estimated. Power unit cost includes fuel, labour and margin for tractor.

Air seeders use a medium or heavy duty cultivator as a tillage tool bar, a towed commodity metering cart, pneumatic seed and fertilizer delivery systems and tillage soil-engagement tools for seed and/or fertilizer placement. The cultivator’s fixed-frame hitch (connected to tractor drawbar) and in-frame wheels support the implement, and hence depth control of the soil-opener tools is controlled by hydraulically actuating the height of the cultivator frame. Options for soil engagement and seed opener tools include sweeps, spoons, or knives. Appropriate seed-row finishing equipment such as harrows, coil packers, or gang packers are attached to the back of the cultivator frame (separate from the tillage tools).

J = D/(60 min/hr)*(truck cost) K =E/(60 min/hr)*(auger cost)L = H/(60 min/hr)*(labour cost) M = I/(60 min/hr)*(labour cost)

# trips/hr one combine = (60 min/hr)/H # trips/hr two combines = (60 min/hr)/I N = (J + K + L)*(60 min/hr)/H*1.15 O = (J + K + M)*(60 min/hr)/I*1.15

Appendix B: Rental Rates for Farm Buildings and Bins

26

Your Value ExampleReplacement cost of building $20,000Retained value of building (at end of years of service) $8,000Interest rate (opportunity cost not included) 5.50%Repair rate (% of replacement cost)* 0.50%Annual insurance premium $60Optimal life 30

Calculate:A. Depreciation:(Replacement cost - Retained Value) / Optimal Life = ($20,000 - $8,000) / 30 = $400

B. Interest Cost:(Replacement cost) x (1.98 (Interest Rate) - 0.0054) / Years of Loan = This assumes 50% borrowed and 7 year loan

C. Insurance:Annual insurance premiums =

D. Repairs:Annual repair rate x Replacement cost =

Total = A + B + C + D

Total (per bushel)

($20,000 x ((1.98 x 0.06) - 0.0054)) / 10 = $227

$60

(0.005 x $20,000) = $100

($400 + $227 + $60 + $100) = $787 per year

$787 per year / 3000 bu = $0.26/year per bu

Repair rates are difficult to estimate. Steel buildings (bins and quonsets) might be 0.5% of replacement cost per year. Aeration fans might be higher. Wood buildings might be 1 to 3% of the replacement cost.

For bins with aeration or natural air drying, include the purchase cost of the fan and air distribution system in the replacement cost value. Add approximately $0.50/hr for a 7 hp fan, $0.40/hr for a 5 hp fan and $0.25/hr for a 3 hp fan for electricity costs.

To determine the fair rental rate for farm buildings, consider:
