I can understand you friend's frustration. However he does come across as "A neighbor from he77" himself.
If he is within village limits he could easily get the property re-zoned for commercial, industrial or residential use and then sell the property for much more than it's worth as farm ground. Many farmers on the edge of towns sell to a developer and then buy two to five times as much ground further out in the country for the same money. People do that all the time.
He has to remember he has neighbors too. At over 400 people there are probably 150 homes or more next to his farm. He has livestock in town? This isn't the 1800's anymore. In a town the smell of manure is like crying babies and barking dogs, people barely tolerate those things when they are their own.
Has that barn been painted in the last thirty years? It looks like an eyesore unpainted like that with rusty equipment scattered about. Unkept property like that is an invitation for other people to look at it and imagine how they could put it to better use.
The village has grown up around him, that's a benefit most farmers don't have. He can continue to fight it for a while or he can work with it for his own benfit and the village's benefit too.
