As manufacturers, machines and price tags get bigger it forces us, as farmers to cover more acres with less machinery/labor. Margins will be so narrow in the next decade there won't be a need for smaller/older machinery as the "small" farmer will be extinct. The ones who will last awhile will be small "old" money farms burning up equity. I see a lot of very hard working farmers who forgot or never knew that farming is actually a business. It's sad to see because I like 99% of my neighbors but it's fairly easy to see who will be gone in 10 or 15 years.
