Dennis,
Just ignore all these whiners!! When I was a kid I worked for ALL these guys. All they ever did was take the hands to the field and then go drink coffee at the cafe and talk about how hard times were! If it were really hard, they would all have moved to town years ago.
Just dont plan on making a living on 18 acres.
The ag agent gave you good advice, but the main thing is do whatever you feel like doing--it doesnt make any difference if you make money at it or not. You can write it off like all the pro farmers do! And maybe get an ag exemption and a government subsidy check for not growing cotton or something. Asking questions (as you can see) is mainly a waste of time. I've asked the pro farmers their opinion, but my questions are usually about things they have never really considered because they are farming on a large scale so they are not much help. The county agent is the best source, thats what they do.
Buy a 30 to 50 hp tractor with a front end loader, tiller, blade, shredder and what ever other toys you want!! It's your money and your place--have a ball!!!
P.S. Dont forget to go to the cafe and gripe about the hard times!! LOL!
