Hmm, folks seem to think I want to walk into a large farming operation and buy it, which I don't. Others seem to think I want to replace my current salary with a single 30 acre field, which I don't.
The main thing I want to do is buy a small field, and make enough profit on it to justify my inputs and time. I can always build from there if it provides a positive cash flow.
As much as I would would like to replace my income 100% with farming, I know that's not realistic in the short term. My goal right now is to diversify my efforts, rather than putting all my eggs in one basket (my day job).
I think the bottom line is that this isn't the time, maybe in a few years once interest rates creep up. I did more looking, and was able to identify two pastures (14 acres and 9 acres) locally that are currently unused, but fenced. If I can rent those out in a few years, that may be the best option to get started.
