Hello Brad. After reading your posting, I think you feel alot like I do about this subject. I am 20 years old and I too have considered farming as my job. Our 160 acre dairy farm has been in our family since my great great grandfather bought the land from the USA. It is very hard to find a family farm anymore, and I do want to buy the place, but I doubt I will milk cows like the past generations. I look at my father, at age 55, and see a tired and worn out person. We works his butt off for little or no pay after the bills are paid.

Good luck to you and keep the faith in farming. Justin Meyer from Southeast Minnesota
