[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 605324, member: 1682"] Well, I know we can make a buck at it. There are a lot more around here that could too if they would quit buying fancy machinery well beyond what they need. A lot of the producers around here use new John Deere 4WD 120 hp+ tractors to put up their hay for 50 to 100 cows. They are the same ones who whine about no profitability, whereas we and a lot of our true farming neighbours use old Massey and JD 2WD tractors to do the same. A lot of the land in the area is bought up by hunters and for timber rights, not farmers...which is sad because it is about the cheapest in the country. Looks like mining rights might start taking off here as well, as we are sitting on some of the biggest gold and copper deposits in the world. I could never understand how anybody could buy land at $2000+ an acre and then tell me he makes a profit. :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
