Unfortunately Of the teens I know living on working farms right now I know of none that intend on staying on the farm. If this turns out to be a reality it will put some smaller guys I know out of business. They just can't afford hired help and there is more than one person can do. I guy I know has 5 daughters, 4 of em married and last one a senior in HS. So far he has told all of his SILs that they can live and make a living on the farm with the farm being passed on to them in the future. None are taking him up on it and only one girl is married to a farmer who is in for a share of a very large (by our standards) family farm, beef and grain. So that family my wind up taking over the farm and becoming even larger. Guy with the 5 daughters is tilling 1000 acres and has 500 under irrigation. Sad part is that I know about a dozen younger people, 18-35 that would love to be able to start farming but have little hope of ever affording the land and equipment.
So the big question is where is this government interference going to put us in 25 years?
