What type of hobbies do you have?

Look into the "Death Tax".      It's why almost no farms (or other large capital businesses) are individually owned.      Corporations never die so they are immune from inheritance taxes.     My personal tractors are a class 1 MF (50 hp) and a class 2 Deere (100 hp), nowhere near that big but just right for making hay.      The big land and the big machines (including a grain storage facility) are owned by a series of corporations that I am a very small part of.




I was born and raised in a suburb, close enough to the city to have phones, TV, schools, and other modern conveniences but close enough to the country to able to bicycle to farms and horses.     




And please do not ever get the idea that farming is simple or easy.      You have to know enough math to calculate the area of irregular fields and the correct planting rate for that area based on the tractor's speed, the drive ratio of the planter, and the size of the seed.       Then you have to calculate the application rate of various chemicals using nozzle sizes, pump pressures, tractor speed, chemical analysis of the crops' needs.      Only after that do you get to drive heavy equipment.
