This is exactly what will happen. All these hobby farmers that thought they could make a living off of organic asparagus are getting a wake up call. I'd like to see the bankruptcy data about the 'age' of the farm. My guess is a significant portion were recent start ups.

I had a friend who's dad was a wheat farmer and he actually went and rented land and did his own farming. They both owned about 5 square miles of farm space. Last time I checked he was at around 12 squares.
