sounds great

>great great grandfather dies

>great grandfather dies
>farm split up further
>grandfather dies
>children are ungrateful cunts who abandoned the farm life to be a career woman, a raging faggot, run off with his second wife, and then my father who loved and lived his life on the farm
>no will

>farm broken up and sold
>no family farm
>seeing farmers just makes me feel pain for what could have been and inspires hatred for my aunts and uncles
We all have our reasons for not farming I guess.

literally the grandpappies fault for not leaving the whole farm to 1 person

I could never kill one myself either
All is right but shit pay, it's an organic farm exponential profits over others

Oh honey lol
The land is just the start of it. You need several million dollars worth of equipment (combine, tractor, planter, plow, augur, baler, sprayer at the very least) and various vehicle including a truck to ship with, you need power you need a well, you need a house, you'll want a bunch of different buildings because you need at least one workship but you will realistically want more in addition to your storage for vehicle and storage for your harvest.
And possibly irrigation and this is just a bare bones description, there is much more equipment that you would realistically want.

Loan or inheritance. I always encourage people to start small scale with a single goat and see if they can keep it alive

beats me, we're so docile we wouldnt ever heart even a fly

my wife wants to, she is from the country though, i am a city fag the farmer boys would laugh at me :(

I smell a leaf that's talking shit. Buy older equipment, tools are generally pretty cheap and are almost none of the budget. Also you don't need all that equipment, depends on what crops you have out and where

Oh and I forgot to mention, for those of us not in the USA, the government will not wipe your ass if you have a bad year. No insurance but what you pay for yourself, no subsidies.
You eat that loss and you eat it alone most other governments on the planet will not help you.
And god help you if you ever get too many strikes on fleet insurance. That alone can completely cripple a farm.

hurt a fly*
jesus I'm sleeyp
later anons

I look like Richard Spencer caught a case of fat and retarded and no one cares. As long as you treat your animals nice, and are decent to people you'll get along fine

Context is key.
Diverse, tiered homesteads are a great asset but require a lot of time and upfront capital. When you focus on everything your profit potential goes down.

If you want to farm, Lean Management is a great frame to maximize profits and efficiency.
We get caught up with concepts and often apply them, whether or not they are completely necessary.
The most profitable farms I've seen can easily gross over $100,000 on 1/4 acre of land with good margins (although business tip - don't show your profits, reinvest to save taxes) and quality of life.
Your best bet to start is to lease some land from a boomer with good water access. Ideally you would have space to expand but start small. Remember, grow better not bigger.

Standardize your production beds so they are all the same size. Focus on high value crops. Salad greens, cut flowers, heirloom tomatoes, hemp, etc.
If you can value add, all the better. Flowers to arrangements, peppers into hot sauce, hemp into CBD oil.

Check out the Urban Farmer Curtis Stone on youtube for a great example of how to start on borrowed land with less than $5k in start up costs

Maybe if you stopped blowing dogs and electing drama teachers things wouldn't be so bad

>start on borrowed land with less than $5k in start up costs
Bull fucking shit not all of us are super connected to billionaires tht will let us 'borrow' their arable land with water rights.

Most farmers will rent land. Hell even I rent out a field

I just bought stardew valley the other day though

>buy equipment off warranty when you're new to farming and have never used or fixed any of it before
Just go play blackjack instead.

Come farm by me where a acre of land can he rented for 50 dollars, although his profit margins are unobtainable for sure.

Also I get the weird feeling you're too young to be here

because farmers are welfare queens

Hell of a game, but gets repetitive after the first year in-game and requires mods to sustain play--which then kills what little replay-ability it has left.

I started a chicken farm but twice now all of the chicks died. I am waiting for a new batch.
Hopefully 3rd times a charm.

Worked out perfectly for me, only had an issue with the combine due to my own fuck up.

What are you feeding them, where are you keeping them, and what have they been dying of?

>farmer
>bourgeois
Stalin, is that you?

I have a small farm
I also fuck the cow sometimes
Trying to make an hybrid

I either watered them too much, or buried them too deep.

Your people already created Brazil. Isn’t that hybrid enough for you?

As I said, context is key. The suburbs are some of the best places to farm. Close access to markets and many places have random fields not in use close to water access. The profit margins I mentioned don't scale up to hundreds of acres but I personally know 4 farms who make over $200,000 on less than an acre.

You don't need to buy everything. If you need to level a field rent a tractor for a day. Then use a rototiller or a rake and hoe. Using landscape fabric is an awesome labor saver.

In the year of our Lord 2019 where nobody can even afford a small house without dual income I'm even envious of freed slaves with their 40 acres and a mule those privileged fucks

no, we must push science further

how do I go from know nothing city boy to basic farming knowledge?
is there a book or guide for people like me?

Haven’t you seen that video of the caveman looking fucker from Brazil? Is that not far enough?

Just play some farming simulator to understand the basics

Farming in the city is a great way to get really high prices by direct marketing to high end restaurants

Brazil is just the future that Portugal has seeded. We are today the King of Coffee, but tomorrow we will be the greatest Empire truly sucessor of the Roman Empire. Its the new age.

Nahh man , I have sen it from birth to knife . My grandparents stuffed me with goat meat (they raise few and kill them for food) and now I feel like throwing up everytime there is food with goat meat

I wonder if you can kill them in their sleep or heavily drugged

That is just... Portuguese.
The native people from here are not sufficient?

I thought Colombia was the king of coffee

They are only Kings of Cocaine. Sad but is true,

Honestly the first time I heard "40 acres" I was like. "Damn good deal, I'd take it"

Who has trouble keeping a goat alive? Goats are impervious to practically everything short of C4.

bro just think of it like a video game
u dont start out with end game gear
kek

See if it'll suck on your pecker.

My cousins do it with 2 acres and they homeschools their 3 kids. Also anti-vax and super adorable kids, blonde cuties

Don't want to rely on welfare
