Well how many of you are farmers or ranchers? If so please answer the following or just put n/a if you don’t want to disclose certain info.
Seems nowadays smaller/medium family farms/ranches are being sold out to larger corporations / big money. Part of the issue is the young generations do not want to work or run a farm/ranch. Another thing is after a couple generations to many siblings/cousins/etc. are involved and it always seems a few of them want out. And at todays cost the ones interested in it can not afford to buy the others out. The future of a lot of types of family owned businesses seems to be drastically diminishing.
What state?
How many acres?
What do you farm/raise?
Did you purchase or was it passed
down?
If passed down, how many
generations?
If purchase what year?
Any younger family members
interested in taking over, or will it
be sold after you?
Thanks
Bill
