This is always tricky, and i have yet to come up with a definate version for myself.
Although i do advertise on my site i will do onsite location shoots, only the farm we board at has asked and i usually give a decent rate for any of our boarders on prints etc. I always felt an hourly charge would suite best. I feel $40.00-$50.00 an hour would suffice, for me, to come a do a shoot. For that i would supply a high res CD for an additional fee, or a low res one for proofs. I would charge like Paul suggested, which is lees than my normal, but i am getting an hourly rate. For a two hour shoot, plus a CD i think $200-$250.??
