Some owls produce 2 pellets per day. Assume each pellet represents 80g of biomass. Also assume that one 40g vole can cause 50 cents of crop damage to a farm per season. If a barn owl family of seven (2 adults[producing 2 pellets/day] and 5 young [producing 1 pellet/day]) lives on a farm for 12 weeks and feeds exclusively on voles, how much will the farmer save in crop damages over the course of a season?
