I also wonder how they define a farmer. Is a Mexican laborer who arrives in the spring and works through harvest time a farmer? Or is it only the people who own the farm? >When you are too old or infirm to farm at all you sell it to your kid or they get power of attorney and take it. When my grandfather retired from farming, he simply leased the land to the guy who owned the adjacent farm. After my grandfather passed away ownership transferred to my grandmother until her death at 101. The same lease arrangement continued for a nearly thirty years. What was the age of the farmers of those farms?
