A good friend was forced to about give away his 160 acre cattle farm down there and 10 years later he is still very bitter about it.He was born in that area.
I'd like to see the record of sale at the county about that. I haven't seen any land given away, even right next to hog buildings. I think other factors are at play here. This I know, I'd take a CAFO a hill over that I can use the manure from anyday before the St. Louis and Chicago neighbors that I now have that think anything we do is "evil" (modern farming). Scott |
