    I understand how important farmers are! Everything we consume or use daily is damn near tied to agriculture. I kind of play farm I guess you could say on a tiny scale. Hoping to increase size someday! Hard when you ain't born into it. Land doesn't come easy...or cheap. It's crazy...many farm millenial kids want to leave the farm and want nothing to do with it. I want to get into farming. And wish I had been raised with farming.
    Awesome video, as always. Love these. Good advice from a good feller.
