This is good advice. Farming yourself will be an uphill battle. You will learn, but it will take some time and it helps if you have someone to guide you because so much of it is experience based. You can probably lease the land to a local farmer to farm it for you. You could maybe even convince them to take you on as a farm hand and teach you how to do it as part of the deal. As said, there is a lot that goes into farming these days and almost everyone specializes in a crop or two. The folks that do it the old fashion ways without adapting are usually going under because their yields are poor / inconsistent. This will likely be you if you go at it alone, so unless you are okay with eating some losses then I would get help.
