The price of most crops right now is below what it was when I was in high school in the mid '90's. And that's before accounting for inflation. Dairy farms in my area are going out of business left and right, and I'm in the #1 ag county in VA. I grew up on a farm; I didn't go back because it wasn't for me. But I understand the system and the economies of scale involved, and I feel sorry for the family farmers.
