I grabbed the DeWalt leaf blower and cleaned the grill and then blew out the radiator. Makes quick and easy work.
The farm is share cropped. Once the grandparents passed, my dad and aunt didn't have the time to farm it themselves. My dad end up buying my aunt's half of the farm. Grandparents use to raise cattle (about 30 head), pigs, and chicken. As they got older they went from livestock to just row cropping.
Good Lord willing, some day the farm will belong to the wife and I, which eventually pass down to the next generation. It has been in the family since just before WWII.
Very cool. In the future, what uses do you think, that you and misses will do with it? Meaning row crop or going back to livestock etc.
Every year, I see big farm and ranches broken up and sold into smaller parcels, at some point its going to effect food production/food security.
The commercial farms will get bigger, and can easily be devastating if disease or natural disaster would occur on/near the commercial farms.
Then all the orginal family farms that became fractured up so much over years, they just don't produce the livestock/crops like they did in the past.
One of the trends in my area, many livestock owners are walking away from it all together. The continued drought persists here.
