What is the typical rate that it costs to harvest and pack corn silage in a pit or bag?

Looking for info on typical cost of custom corn silage harvesting, either in per ton or per acre $$.

Corn is dryland and semi irrigated, so probably looking at a yield of 10-12 tons acre.

We usually can get in the 4.50 per ton range for chopping and hauling, if it is a close haul. This is in the 15-20 ton range for yields, with a high capacity bagger
