Red, I just had some ground grid sampled by GPS. The operator rides around the perimeter of the field and the field is measured to start with. This is about as accurate as you can get. Several of my fields have different measurements than FSA have on the same thing. So don't think that FSA's figures are absolute because they are not. I have done a lot of custom work for others and when you include point rows, etc., it is not unusual to have more acres on a machine than what FSA calls for. I tell everyone before I start that I will get paid for what is on the drill/planter, etc., whether it is in my favor or against me. You would be surprised how many times there are LESS acres than someone thinks there are. Unless the figures for your custom operator are way off, you'd better pay him and be happy you have a good operator to do your work. Many don't care for anything but to cover acres. Mike
