My older three sons all have been farming together for the last five years or so. They jointly own some equipment. They split the cost up at the end of the year according to the acres each run.
As for the extra ground. Only about 450 of it is tillable. Then the one farm we where already renting. So on this deal we will only be adding about 200 acres of grain crops. There will be a gain of about 75 acres of hay and 50 acres of pasture.
We are also picking up another farm we used to rent. There will be much more work there. We will need to get the contour strips all back in it as a BTO farmed it all as one field. I don't do that on any of the ground we have. It all is stripped. So between the two we will be gaining about 400 acres of grain.
We should be able to handle it. I have ran as much as 1200 acres myself in years past. I am only running about 360 now. They had about 450 before. So we are still under the max I have done.
It will work out. The younger one can help his brothers out some more. If he uses that income well then he can start to build himself up. They will help him as much as they can.

The reason you don't find any decals in your replacement set wit
