We just went through the farm transition in my family and as with all the other stories, it did not go super smooth. There's four of us and my two sisters always knew they would never get any of the farm and they were never interested so that part worked out, but my brother on the other hand.....well he was less than impressed with how it worked out. It was always thought that he and I would be partners and own the farm together as we both grew up working the place with dad and pap. The difference was I have made all my life plans around owning the farm and farming it. I purchased cows, sheep and equipment on my own, he did not. I have a job that's conducive to farming, he does not. I made the farm a priority in my life, he only worked it when it was convenient for him. He was given ample opportunity to take on a role there and had years to do it but he did not. So, when time came to make the transition plan he wa not involved and has very upset when he found out he wouldn't be getting any land, which in the end, was the only thing he really cared about. I am very blessed to have a father who understood this and now I am fixing the house up for my family to live in and am in the process of,planning my future there which has always been my dream. He took my sweat and my actions into consideration and now he and I are 50/50 partners on the business side of the farm and the main farm is in my name. I am so blessed and thank the lord everyday for the way things turned out. Still, it is unfortunate that my relationship with my brother has been changed forever but I'm hoping that he will come around.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. 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
