    Vari-slice seeder

    It’s about 40 acres with a 50x60 metal building. The previous owner had started finishing half of it. He had it framed and roughed in with about half of the drywall done. Sounded like he had some health issues and moved to town 15 years ago. He just left everything as it was and it all came with...

    Vari-slice seeder

    Digging up my own thread here. I bought the place I mentioned above. With that vari-slice seeder, would I still find this single row planter useful? I imagine I could only do corn through a row planter, right? What other crops would be better through that row planter? Could I do soy beans...

    Vari-slice seeder

    Thanks guys. There’s a mahendra tractor included as well - looks like it needs a little work. I’ll probably put in an offer today. Wish me luck - looks like a fair amount of work to finish the barndominium project, but it has the best deer cover in the area. I think I can finish the project...

    Vari-slice seeder

    I’m considering buying a flip property, and this vari-slice seeder is included. I don’t have a seeder or drill, but I sure would like to have one. Is this one worth much? Do they work well? Would this be better for certain types of seed? Will it work well on ground that hasn’t been tilled...

    Dog Freedom

    Mine has an e-collar, but it’s amazing how fast he can venture off and when I’m not paying attention. I have an underground fence at home, I should probably get one at the farm too.

    Dog Freedom

    I have a Vizsla that loves to run around. When we’re at the farm house, he tends to stay reasonably close by, but when I’m in the woods working on projects, he likes to venture off all over. How freely does your dog roam on your hunting property? Does that freedom change over the course of...

    Make Money with Land

    Sorry, I fell behind on this thread. Thanks for all the replies! This is where I'm at - I sold a business and have flexibility to do something different. I just haven't found anything exciting that keeps me busy. I'd be able to dedicate all my time to this, and my financial expectations...

    Make Money with Land

    Makes sense - Have you had any success finding the undervalued land? Any tips? Do you look at listed properties and hope you're the first to the table on good deals, go door knocking on unlisted, or go to land auctions?

    Make Money with Land

    Yeah - I haven't found many ideas that don't involve flipping the land. I'd be paying cash, so the interest rates wouldn't get me, but it would have to have as good or better return than more passive stock market investments.

    Make Money with Land

    I was mostly thinking about land I don't yet own, but I bought 70 acres in March that I intend to sell this coming spring. It was a good deal, and I thought it suited my hunting needs, but I ended up finding another place that I intend to keep. So, my question could apply to the first place...

    Make Money with Land

    For those that have sold a farm- Why? Regrets? Lessons Learned?

    I’m interested in buying and selling land. Do you guys have any tips for finding good deals? Are you waiting for good deals on land that get listed, going to land auctions, or contacting land owners on unlisted land?

    Can you clarify why brassicas are last? In these steps, how long is the timeline? Are brassicas a year later?

    What should I convert Fescue into?

    I’ll probably do switchgrass screening along the roads, but for the cover in the thinned ERC, is there a seed blend you recommend?
