Keep hearing about this stuff. Just don't see it. We had one guy here who thought that he was going to make a killing (before land prices went crazy) buying land and renting it out. He priced rents in some of the highest areas of the country and tried getting that much per acre here :lol: ! So he bought some equipment and started farming it himself. Except MR moneybags hired some good help to get him started. He don't bother anyone and before the commodity price collapse seemed to be making money. Built a nice machine shed. Keeps a camper in it too. Come on "vacation" 4 times a year to plant and harvest. Spends money in the local area. IIRC he has a tractor, chisel plow with muncher. Corn and bean planters and a CaseIH combine with a corn and bean heads. Tandem axle grain truck and a couple of grin bins. He's been operating 12 years or so. I don't see a problem. If he wasn't doing a corn bean rotation on it someone else would. He has irrigation on it now.
So my question is what's the problem? Most likely it gives him something to talk about with his city friends at dinner parties.
