Working for the man now so I can hopefully buy some land and start raising some cattle in the future. It's tough to get in to when you're starting out with zero acres, zero equipment, and all you own is school debt

Same here to a large extent, I help manage/operate the farm but don't own.
Hopefully one day but not yet.
That is the problem Ag will have to face in the next 10-15 years. There are so few young people in Ag and almost all of the producers are getting up there in age.
That and Ag has a messaging problem, we don't do a good enough job educating the public about our issues.

Southern Ag in Mccomb had a really good YFR loan few years ago. David Shivers was the lender who stopped by to see me. It was super easy to get approved and had a long lenient payback.
Actually the cattle business has the lowest entry cost of all I know of. Rent some pasture, buy a 50 hp tractor set of forks and clipper, squeeze chute, wire, posts, couple panels, and start getting stepped and shat on.
