[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 431084, member: 3162"] The tax assessors have a minimum acreage for farm exemption. I forget what that it but it seems it was in the 25 acre proximity here in this county, before they would "consider" granting ag-exemption. With the price of land being several thousand per acre here, someone trying to start out from scratch would never be able to build himself into a cattleman on his own if you took away all the opportunity. Most of us who inherited land, did so later in life. I bought my first land (8 acres) at the age of 20. Both sets of grandparents and my parents were alive then. They all passed on over the next 25 years. During that time I bought and sold (traded) pieces of land on my own. Once I acquired land by inheritance, it was a boost to something I was already doing. Young people have to start somewhere. [/QUOTE]
