I realize that in the "olden days" there were millions and today there are thousands, but then they...

    Blame the Welfare Rancher??? Why

    Mark you have to understand that farming and ranching is as much a way of life as it is a business. My oldest son is a farmer and that is ALL he's ever wanted to do since he was a little kid. He farms some 2000 acres of irrigated cotton with just one hired hand. A pretty big job. He called me...

    Blame the Welfare Rancher??? Why

    Mr Buzzard, do you have any idea of what kind of capital investment a rancher has that is at risk whether he private leases or BLM leases. It doesnt vary much in either case. The main money is in stock and equipment. Do you have any of your own capital investment at risk in your job or...
