[QUOTE="SFFarms, post: 573091, member: 8557"] That's kind of depressing for me, it kind of makes one wonder how in the future farms will survive? I know in my parts land is around 3500-4000+ an acre and there is no way ill be able to buy 250+ acre to make a income farming. I know other people my age will wonder why would they farm when they can get a city job and make twice that. I wonder who will be future farmers? Kind of points to farming becoming an industry in the future. :? Most large family farms cant hold market up if the smaller farms like me keep dispersing. It seems farming for the small operation is pointless in the future. I just hope somehow the tides will turn and it will be differnt for me in the future but i just cant see it happening. :frowns: :| [/QUOTE]
