Went into a discount /bulk supermarket yesterday- non organic 'hot house' looking tomatoes... $9.99 a POUND! This year nearly all mine were seconds, not market quality even for funky organics. Potato patch was worse. A bad year even with decent rain. But the old Italians around here used to make a year's pay- on 3 or 4 acres of tomatoes, and and prices like in the store this week.... I could see that happening- now and then, in perfect conditions. Everything depends on everything else eh? When you say 'tough'... are you talking about New York rocks? Wet spot? Which also seems to be a New York mixed blessing nowdays- but if you didn't do a truck farm veg thing, you aren't going to turn a buck on 'organic hay' or pasture, unless you were growing -poultry? What can you feed on 10 acres? 3 steers or 10 sheep? max. Really got to be greens or reds. Might be good mellon patch if wet and rocky??.... I would get the extension service to start earning their keep, they would do a soil sample, come up with ideas that worked in the past, and because they are tied in with the organic and 'family budget' organizations, they will want to see you make it into something usefull to you and their freinds, so don't shy away like most of the state does...
