I watched just about all of it. If you have satellite or cable DVR you can get the episodes you missed "on demand." Like some other posters I though it was overly dramatized. In one episode the Virginia farmer was having his son combine some mighty poor beans with an old JD 3300. The beans were poorer than the combine.

I thought the Alaska guy was probably taking undue advantage of his daughters, except for the unmarried one. He had some good ideas but it seemed to me like he was allergic to manual labor. I thought he spent too much time telling the girls to get to work and not enough time working himself, but they may have just been what showed



The guys in Virginia must make their money off the farm, because there was no way that farming was buying another 900 acres.

I thought the same thing about the Alaska guy, except that they seemed to do everything the hard way. It seemed like a lot of the soil prep and planting/transplanting could be mechanized a lot more with a little bit of equipment.
