I believe the term Hobby is intended to be doing something for the pleasure and satisfaction of doing it, or at least that's my idea of any hobby. I put up hay and sell it along with feeding it to our 2 hay burners. I only own 2 acres and the only thing I raise on it is a raised bed garden, the rest is several fields that belong to other folks that I keep limed and fertilized. I make a little money doing it but not enough to pay me for doing it. I do it because I enjoy it so I guess that makes me a Hobby farmer. I also have somewhere around 10 or 11 tractors at any given time and enjoy the working on them and working them so that is also a Hobby. I have no idea, and will never have since I'm 71, what the enjoyment is to be several hundred thousand in debt to the bank and paying several people who work for you, but if that is what you enjoy, then you my friend are also a Hobby farmer. I've never believed that farming was something one has to do, it's something someone enjoys doing. Just my thoughts. Keith
