Caught the last half of a documentary about the future of Farming from the late 1970's. Very interesting show. It showed a Iowa farm family. Young man about 30ish his wife and kids and his Father running a 700 acre farm. They were running a few 100 head of feeder cattle, about 250 pigs, soy beans and corn. It painted a pretty picture for the future of Farming for the next 20 years. I was riveted to this show. I really enoyed wathching all the late 60's early 70's equipment being used. Made special coment about the new 6 row JD combine that ran nonstop when combining. Very interesting show. If only they would have been right. I kept saying to my self. Wish they could fast farward to 1985 and see how this story came out.
