What I read... is that they've been doing this for 40 years. So they're old. They can't do it anymore because of health. I also read that they've actively discouraged the next generation from having anything to do with it. That says to me right there all I need to know. They're not forced to sell. They intended to sell, probably since a very long time. There's no need shedding any tears for them. We see it all the time around here with dairy farms. Guys depreciate their investmets down so that the gear is worn out. The buildings are worn out or obsolete... but the bank account isn't too bad... then they decide to turn around and dump their quota on the market because sunny boy 'doesn't want to farm'.

In those situations nobody can afford to keep it going... because it's not a matter of keeping it going. It's a matter of more or less completly rebuilding and starting over at a large scale and dealing with meddling from people who won't leave and are still trying to run it...and there's a LOT of those situations out there. They're quite actively planed out that way too...
