I will not tell you what to do, that is up to God and you. I will tell you what I did. It was a difficult decision to make for me, but I signed my small farm into the CRP Pollinator program. I just turned 66 and am 1 year into a 10 year program. The last harvest was tough, knowing I would never do this at home again, but financially, I would have been a fool not to sign up. I'm still working, lots of overtime. It was all I could do to keep the weeds mowed this summer. I sold the combine and next year I will try to sell planter, sprayer and field equipment so I don't have to mow around it. I still tinker around with tractors, I just bought 2 more in Oct. If I ever retire, couple neighbors want me to drive tractor and combine for them. I think I can stay busy as long as my health holds out and I don't have to worry about prices, weather, breakdowns, etc. My long term goal had always been to have a small farm to work when I retire to keep busy and keep me active. Farming has changed so much and gotten so expensive it just wasn't fun anymore. I pray that God will guide you in the right decision for you. Chris

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
