Quote: CVPost-ss55 (quoted from post at 10:56:37 02/06/23) I thinking a return to normal prices like $3.50 corn and $7.00 soybeans for a few years would take much of the steam out of the over 30 years old hobby tractor market.
I've never understood this attitude. "The farmer must suffer." Just because they always have does not mean they always have to, or even should suffer.
$3.50 corn and $7.00 beans would kill a lot of farmers, even those that socked away the money from high commodity prices and didn't go out and spend it on new equipment.

Nope, just like a bucket of crabs. Every time one starts gets close to escaping the rest reach up and pull him back down. You wonder why the kids move off the farm.
