nw/nc iowa on the banks of West Buttrick Creek..
I do think there is a shortage of qualified farmers. So many of our "next generation" are just semi drivers and hog house watchers for their daddies and the kids only vision is just waiting for the weekend to party. We have an endless group of these grease balls in our area and they will probably be ok because of their grandpa's and great grandpa's. Maybe they will grow up and learn a little by the time daddy dies. Takes more than a tractor and semi driver to be a farmer today. Go out and get an education and some management experience and then come back.
