The article I read was, “New, Young Farmers Compete for Land.” The date of the article was November 25, 2014. Nowadays it is harder and harder for young farmers to own land. This is happening to young farmers who want to start right away. They already have student loans to pay off an they probably can’t afford land. Seven out of ten farmers under 35 have to rent land.

A lot of the farming is done by the larger companies so it is even harder for them to sell their products. My classmate RT thinks, “It is bad, that is all.” My other classmate Nick thinks, “The government should do something about it, and Obama is better. Farming’s not simple. You’ve got to be smart to do it,” Chris, one of the farmers, said. I think the government should help these young farmers by giving them loans.
