My Dad stopped farming in 1974 when I was 12 and we moved to town. The extended family continued to farm in one fashion or another and I was able to help/visit while growing on up. However, I was not allowed to consider farming as an occupation. I started going back out to the farm in 1995 to help my cousin and since then have purchased 40 acres out of my grandparent's estate in 2002. My mortgage and taxes on it is more than the cash rent, so I am a real farmer (losing money). I wouldn't trade it for anything - ran the corn planter there for my cousin(tenant)this spring. I am 42 and plan on farming somehow/somwhere when I retire. Farming is one of the last noble professions - we all must eat. Good Luck to you and may God bless.
