JD, you must be familiar with Copake, Ancram and the like, there's still some beautiful land in that valley and surrounding hills, with oustanding views of the Catskills, has to be 110+ miles from NYC. Last I saw it, there was still quite a bit of agriculture going on there.
It's getting out of hand, the guy I work for on the side, driving a DM mack hauling his hay straw and sawdust/grindings, to a large dairy operation in Easton, NY 2000 head - lumber mill just raised his price on sawdust/grindings, $7/yd dairy found another source of hay less than $150/ton, so now he's got a barn full of round bales, that would have gone to this customer, with the prices going up, cost of keeping the truck on the road, it's a very thin profit, thanfully he does not milk anymore, and the way things are, hard to say what we are going to do with 250 acres in corn 70 in oats and 150+ in hay. He's got health issues, really can't get in the truck or tractors anymore, if we don't do it after the daytime job, it's over for good, barely enough money in it to pay us for doing it. Even worse, though he's sold some land in the past, this is what brings in money for him, he's got a minimal retirement, I dunno, I hope it was something else, sure is not easy anymore.
