I am 64, still healthy and own all i have outright but for a very small mortgage on some of the land
I am located in Northern Alberta 800 ml north of the border.
Good farmland around here sells for 160 to 200+ grand a quarter, closer to town and along the main artery up to 450 so financially i won't have worries even after the greedy gub-mint takes his undeserved cut.
My place is bordering a huge forest reserve and is more suited for grazing than farming as i often have a sneaky killing frost early in the fall
i graze around 130 cows and their calves and 100 yearlings on 7 and a half quarters and it ain't all open ground either so it produces not to bad but of course it all depends on rain fall.
I have 300 acre in hay, it produces around a 1000 big rounds first cut in a good year, a second cut is risky so i let that sit, if it was fenced i could graze it.
I ain't really a fan of driving tractor,it's alright for a couple days at the time but any more than that gets boring ..i rather fix them than drive them so changes of helping someone planting crops on my land is not really something i would consider.
rrlund, i bought this place here 21 years ago just to get away from civilization,...actually it is for me the closest thing to paradise, no traffic, no noise,..just nature.
