A by the acre rate might work if you already know the fields, but quote an hourly rate for all new work. Quoting by the acre on new fields could stick you with a loss if the field is bad and your need to raise the mower and drive slowly to avoid hazards or damaging your equipment.

When you calculate a hourly rate add up you: labor; fuel; insurance; regular maintenance on your tractor and mower; mileage for your trailer and truck if towing; and an extra 25 percent to cover unexpected damages - that will happen.

Also never work for a cheapskate, you'll learn why.
