More farmers then land. It's so out of wack but a farmer needs land.
60k/acre doesn't pencil out for cropland no matter how sharp your pencil is.
Pencil doesn’t matter when you’ve got the old money that some (most) of the buying families have, in these regions.
There are isolated, rocky, poor places to farm in regions of WV with higher land values than Iowa, but those people aren’t leaving and they all want what little dirt comes up for sale.
