well i am proof that you can start from scratch. gout out of the army in 2009 bought 5 acres then 2010 bought 5 more then rented 13 then picked up 4 3-5 acre lots. then picked up a few more just breaking 120 now mostly hay but for me the key is to utalize small tracts of land that the bigger farms dont bother with. eventually they will add up and make you enough to pay for the bigger and bigger. sever folks bought 6-10 acres and biult a big house and after a yr or 2 got tired of mowing it all and let me hay it or grain for free for just keeping it looking nice. I found that starting with grain alone was difficult so i started with hay and feeder hogs. wife got into selling eggs and then added veggies at farmers market. start small think diversity!!!!!!!!!!!! until you get big enough to specialize. keep your chin up you can do it! I know several others that started from scratch on now farms 700 acres. another specializes in hay and does 300 acres. keep at it. nothing comes easy. good luck
