South Central Iowa
Thanks. I am fortunate to be in a situation where land is not outrageously burdensome, but it is very similar to cash rents.

There's a saying I've heard that goes something like, "Everyone wants to swim in paint, but most will drown." Doesn't mean you can't buy new, but I think people should buy to own.

Labor for me is just in the ether. The spraying contributes a bit and the cattle some as well. There are 5 adults dependent, but houses are cheap or paid for, vehicles are too or part of the farm operation. Generally we just take what we need from the note. It isn't that much and it just sort of gets dispersed without really noticing. We are all pretty austere. Also, I have a pre-Obama care health plan I got in college and yes, I got to keep it. It is really good and really cheap.
