You are probably right ... Back in the 40s in Saskatchewan, when combines were replacing binders, stooking, and thresher crews, a brand new combine cost about as much as a quarter section. When I was farming out there in the 70s, a brand new combine cost about as much as a quarter section. Probably still the same today.
Feel free to google "binder," "stooking," and "threshing crew."
