[QUOTE="hillrancher, post: 431325, member: 6761"] I find this post very interesting, but I am going to have to disagree with all of you as I am seeing small farms disappear very fast here in my area. Land has gotten so expensive and it dose not produce efficiently no one want to and cannot farm. I started putting my operation together 30+ years ago. Got an offer last year I should have accepted, but too late in life to make any changes. One of our sale barns here is running about 60% or less than 15 year ago. All because of housing taking up the land and the best land in our area. If and when beef can be produced like poultry small farmers will be working for the corporation. As people have moved in regulations have put a down turn of our poultry,dairy and some beef. I think Argentina will take over poultry in the near future , because tyson is already looking at them. Twenty year ago every- one had from 2 to 200 head of live stock on their farm or homesteads. Now it is dogs and horses. Just an opinion. No facts [/QUOTE]
