That's why it's damn near impossible to get into farming without inheriting the business from family. Both my uncles are nearing retirement and unfortunately none of my cousins have shown any interest in taking over either family farm.

Yup. I don't even want to think what it would cost to buy all the land you'd need let alone the equipment.

Yeah, I've seen something similar with my family in Iowa. I hope one of my cousins steps up but most of them moved to either Des Moines or Cedar Rapids. My mom's side of the family has been farming in Iowa since the 1850s.
