    I’m so excited to see y’all advocating for farmers . We need kids to see that it takes a multiplicity of talents to be a farmer and dedication to the Lord , family and the Land and hard work. I farmed for 30 years I understand . God bless y’all !

    it's sad, but a few dairy farmers in our area in central MN recently sold their herds and got out of the business. there's hope though for a couple of our neighbors that farm as their kids are going to take over. we need more of that. our older 3 kids work on dairy farms as we don't have a full working farm and I hope that gives them more appreciation of what farmers actually do. we are working on growing our homestead with more diversity of growing gardens and animals, but it's a slow learning process. all the best to all the farmers out there. we're praying for u!

    😆🤣😂 The real Pocahontas (not Elizabeth Warren) has about 100,000 descendants. Today, we mixed blood Native Americans should be about 100 million. Our voices are silenced by politicians and newspeople who openly say they are homosexual, immigrants or recognize themselves of other countries.
    As so often if farmers check their genealogy, depending on location, they will find a Native American ancestor. Being that it is estimated if, we have 300 years of European ancestors, we have 50% chances for being Native American.
    Our voices should unite in voting for the protection of our young and the rights of being upon the lands of our ancestors for now up to 40,000 years.

    👏👏👏 Outstanding video. Our schools have been dropping VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURAL and MACHINE SHOP classes. Truth in education is lost to disingenuous socialist education.
    The basic science, economics and industry education has been displaced by Google technology and socialism.
    PLATO'S REPUBLIC whereas SOCRATES stated, The ideal society is a society of women and children. Although it is an ideal society, it is doom to failure. Man will not support what is not his to support.
    Such is the continuous failure of the modern socialist society as where the farmers are displaced and farming fails. Bill Gates and other elites have begun the process for removing farmers as, the farm are then allowed to become nothing more than tax write-off. This will be as nothing more than a violation of the SHERMAN ANTITRUST ACT. The monopoly of food resources, distribution and transportation, can only be offset by localization of community, individuals and area farmers who can act as a defensive collective or farmers cooperation whereas the interest of individual achievement is paramount of common wealth of individual achievements 🤔😉😀🤣

    How do you expect to grow farmers when college educated people think we don't need farmers because there's plenty of food in grocery stores.

    My uncle was a farmer, and he was one of the most humble but intelligent people I knew. My husband's family has many brilliant farmers as well, such as his father who transferred his knowledge to feeding zoo animals, and his uncle who held the most patents for the John Deere cotton picker. There was another who a missionary and he helped bring more modern farming to India decades ago as well as encouraging literacy. To do anything well, it takes more than dumb luck and determination.

      Only way right now is a Green card. Not an exceptional individual here. I have some interests in Permaculture and conventional farming but not the experience.
      Also comming from the eastern block money are kind of a problem for the initial land purchase. And farming equipment...

    I started agricultural university in the Netherlands 3 years back. The average age of farmers is between 60 and 67, depending on who you ask, and where you look. At my level, we only graduate about 100 or so people in the entire nation, which is shockingly low. I've always been amazed that farming wasn't actively promoted. The opposite often seems to be the case nowadays though, it just eludes me how this could happen.
