Message: [QUOTE="crsublette, post: 178209, member: 3847"] Yeah, it is silly how folk think in regards to agriculture. There is quite a bit of ignorance out there. There are many old negative stereotypes in regards to working conditions, wages, and benefits that simply no longer apply. Sure, some of the hand holding out here disturbs me and should not be done, but there is also a growing expense imposed on farmers by the resource conservation and nutrition organizations that have added quite a bit of expense and much more politics out-about-now causing the grian and energy markets to be much more volatile, which has impacted farmers more than it was when my father farmed. The volatile market can really persuade folk to make some pig headed decisions and inflate land values. [/QUOTE]
