I only know two farmers with less than 500 acres. They don't rent any land. Most farmers rent more land then they own. I think the average is 2500-3000 acres.
Farming sure has changed. When my dad opened his repair business in 1963. He had more customers with less than 100 acres than he had with over 300 acres.
Two of his customers farmed an 80. One with a JD model H.The other one had a 1939 Ford 9n and a 1936 Ford truck.
Another one had a quarter section with two Farmall C's.
And they all raised chickens,hogs,and cattle. Some had sheep also.
