Nothing wrong with followers or posers. It's not always possible to be a farmer first due to circumstances. So much can happen to interrupt the chain of generation to generation in farming. Often it is not the fault of the people who are alive and with us today. I know of a situation where a farmer had four boys and sensed nothing but fighting and jealousy coming when they became men in regards to who stays and who makes the orders. He told the boys he was selling in a matter of a few years and did just that. It should be said at the time which was the late 1960's he kept the honest reason to himself. Around here there is a lot of ground that flat out is not good for a continuous corn-soybean rotation so when wheat faded it reduced profitability to a point where it was much harder to make it. Myself, I would love to make a healthy non-farm income to be able to enjoy my life better and have less stress but this region has been on economic life support since the early 1980's. Followers and posers would often make for better neighbors than those that feel no connection to farming at all. You know the non-farm neighbors who feel your farm is their personal garbage dump or hunting paradise.
