Back before I quit working an off farm job I was getting income from the job,the wife was getting income from her full time job,we were getting income from several rental houses,plus I owned over 100 brood cows was into the farming operation with my father 50/50,he owned 100.You call that a 'hobby farm'? No it was just another business enterprise according to my accountant and I was making a good gross out of the farm but very limited net because I was pouring money into fencing and equipment for when I was going to quit the day job.Now I'm a 'real farmer' according to a lot of you fella's definition because I don't have the day job but the irony is I have less than 50 cows now,but still have the rentals so I guess that hurts my standing(LOL).I guess real farmers stay on the farm,whine and collect Gov't money to get by in tough times and hobby farmers got off their behinds and find some enterprise or job to make up the income gap they need and not become a ward of the state.If so I'm a proud 'Hobby Farmer'.
