Our Family Farm - "I got it done with smaller equipment.",

FARM BUSINESS
Warren always farmed only 160 acres & usually bought used equipment. Explains why he did not expand size of farm. Tried not to go into debt like a lot of other farmers did buying more land & bigger equipment. Notes big cost of new equipment, maintaining equipment, & fertilizer. Warren continued to farm and made profit by working harder despite not purchasing new equipment or land. Others with more land & better equipment got work done quicker, but they still had the debt.
