Hi Robbie. Welcome to the forum. 7000 acres? Wow, that's huge. What type of farming operation is it?

Thank you for the warm welcomes. This apears to be a new forum and I look forward to seeing this site grow.

Thier farm is a comercial operation encompasing 7 surrounding counties. They are mostly grain farmers; in the summer growing mostly corn and soy beans, they also grow barly, wheat, and hay (enof to feed thier beef cattle, not for resale). They also have beef cattle but that is a small portion of thier focus. I belive the current head count is just under 200 head of cattle.

Again, Thanks for the welcoms and have a nice day, Robbie
