My father grew up in small farm, my grandparents had something like 8 cows and made a living, it was not comfortable but they even bought properties in urban area so the kids would have a place to build a house on. Maternal grandparents felt the heat earlier, their crop was rice; a typical property would yield 100 x 60kg bags, and that would feed a family for the year, along with a couple pigs and chickens... the problem was my mother had 8 siblings, so no land to everybody, and glad they moved to the city, because agriculture shot up in scale. Relatives who stayed behind had to buy a lot of land, machinery, and they are well-off because they grow palm heart on the side.
