    The sap price is based on gallons and sugar content. The dollar amount is based on the bulk price of syrup. Sap sellers strike a deal as to where they get paid between 50% - 70% of the bulk price of syrup that year.

    Search for Cornell Sap Pricing Table online and you’ll find a chart that shows pricing of sap based upon various sugar content and bulk price of syrup in pounds.
