Mid western Ontario was a mixed farming area. Everyone had cows, pigs, chickens or ducks or geese, skimmed their milk, big gardens etc. on a 100 acre farm. Still a mixed farming area, but each farmer has specialized.... on my road, there are several crop only farmers of 1000 acres plus, a few looped pig farms with 1000 sows, couple of dairy farms with 100 plus cows and a few feather farms with tens of thousands of birds. Almost all land is drained, with a few trees being planted for badly needed windbreaks. My other farm ...100 acres...was for sale in 1953 for 700 dollars, with no takers....it was rented for pasture, had about 30 head, but needed hay brought in by mid summer. It was eventually inherited by descendants of the owners, and my dad bought it in 1973. Has yielded 50 bushel soys, 100 bushel wheat and 175 bushel corn. What will the next 50 years bring???
