Also, did you listen to the Royals on radio while you worked the cows? Did you have a field where the grass was mowed short for a while and then long, and the long grass was a home run when you were hitting a baseball or a wiffle ball or a hedgeapple or whatever?

yes to royals
yes to that other stuff but just because we mowed it like that on purpose

when we needed cowboys sddad legitimately did an ad in the high plains journal for a cowboy or whatever. it's ridiculous to think about. I will ask him next time we talk if that's how he still does it.

yes, always. I think the hard part of being a hick ks cow farmer is that you have shitloads of places for your offspring to throw raggers for their bruhs/bruhdettes and you really have no way to find them because it's a large area to cover.

SD-

When I eventually inherit like 1/3 of my grandparents farmland (NW KS) how should I "Rent" it out to the local yokels? Flat fee every year? Take 1/3 of the cut? Pro's and con's of each?

Non irrigated dryland farming, assuming my uncles don't screw my dad out of his share and assuming I can screw my sibling out of their share I could eventually end up with UP TO 3 quarter sections. So like almost a square mile from what I understand.

Keep in mind that the land will be held in a LLC that will never turn a profit, everything will be spent on "Expenses" like a HUGE F-250 Ford.
