[QUOTE="True Grit Farms, post: 1565270, member: 24694"] I keep thinking that the government is going to quit giving welfare to farmers one of these days. Then the land prices will be back where you can afford to buy a little more land to put cattle on. The way I see it is you can't afford to buy land to expand your cattle operation and think it's a good investment. And land rent is to high for cattlemen that live in row crop country, and the reason is because of the farmers are willing to pay more to lose more. A crop insurance agent told me that no one in his three counties can farm without borrowing money every year? I don't see that as a positive cash flow. [/QUOTE]
