Using this budget, farmers can estimate the costs and returns for raising strawberries in a high tunnel. Table 1 presents estimates for Missouri based on price forecasts in January 2025. The budget assumes strawberries are grown in a 1,000-square-foot high tunnel with trickle irrigation and sold wholesale. Capital investments and a financial sensitivity analysis are summarized in Tables 2 and 3. Use the “Your estimate” column to plan your high tunnel strawberry operation’s costs and returns.
