It kinda sounds to me like you did come on here to whine. That being said, you need to want to help yourself before anyone else can help you. It sounds like you are looking for growth with more crop acres only. You need to think outside the box. I don't know how many crop acres you are running now but evidently you don't feel it is enough to make a living to your standards. Are you doing the same old corn, soybean rotation as your competitors? If you have 400 crop acres and they have 4000 how would you expect to do financially the same as them? How about cucumbers? How about watermelons? How about hogs or turkeys? If you are to close to a metro area for livestock, how about a roadside stand with veggies or farm fresh eggs? How about agri-tourism? If you have more time then money which it sounds like then you need to get into some nitch that is labor intensive. Your neighbors have more money then time. That is how they acquire more land for traditional corn,soybean farming. How about sweetcorn or pumpkins? How about 1/2 hogs or 1/4 of beef? Come on put your thinking cap on. After you have considered and tried a bunch of things and have failed at every one for different reasons come back on here and tell us maybe one of us will have some more non traditional ideas. You will get no sympathy from me unless you have tried all the a fore mentioned ideas. Try and look at the glass as half full. See the rose bush for the blossoms not the thorns. I don't have much but every thing I got, I figured out how to get myself and I am damn proud of it. Good luck. The Flying Belgian.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
