[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1603499, member: 24816"] My story, 7’th generation farmer here in this county. The original amount of land was much larger but over the generations it got passed down and sold off. A cousin and I are the only ones left here and between us we both have a portion of the original family land. I have tried a little of a it of different things as far as farming. My parents both worked public jobs and ran stocker cattle along with raising some tobacco. I started out with registered Charolais cattle, and working in tobacco. After a few years, I went away from Charolais and started raising dairy calves, then added sheep and a few goats. Dairy farms started going out of business soon had to give that up, and coyotes put me out of the sheep business. I then got into stocker cattle, steers and then some heifers. I soon started selling the heifers as breds. Had a few cows along too, and am now building toward exclusively a cow/calf operation. Working towards 60-70 cows. [/QUOTE]
