[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1569088, member: 25884"] Lost another farm here in Va. Reg cows, had about 30 holsteins and 25 Brown Swiss, milking, plus young stock. Good genetics. He got hurt about a year ago, damage to his muscles and tendons in leg, surgery, and daughter came home to farm. Equipment getting worn out, daughter got offered a good job with benefits, he told her to take it there was no future with prices the way they have been. Got another commercial farmer talking about cows going so he doesn't have to plant corn this year. Milks about 125.... Got another that has all river bottom crop ground. Says they will make a decision by May if they can't get in to plant, they are selling out. Daughter came home to farm from college. Prices might improve 1.00/cwt this year???? NOT GOOD. [/QUOTE]
