Can you make money on small farm/ homestead?

[@ganderfarms9348]

Thank you for being a small farmer that stands up for commercial agriculture. I’m involved in both plus teaching agriculture. Commercial ag is not trying to kill anyone. America has the safest and cheapest food supply in the world. There is a place for small farms and large commercial farms. 98% of farms are still family owned in America. Some are large and some are small. Thank you for the truth. I enjoy all of your videos.

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

Most people don't have a clue about how food is produced and believe anything said on Facebook especially the negative.

[@starvingsum1]

Raises hand out of conviction, guilty! I had no idea birds cant get antibiotics before slaughter! How about hormones? What are they talking about hormone free?

[@lilbitofpuregold]

Me and my husband have obviously gone crazy we sold our city house to buy a farm in the middle of nowhere oklahoma and we are wanting to build up to supply our families food and also do a little business off our excess . we are very in the hole with ourselves right now. We do have our first sow ready to farrow next month. I just found your channel and your farm reminds me of my grandpa's farm that i basically grew up on. Nice videos very helpful

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

You'll do fine as long as you keep realistic goals . Limit spending and build/find a market for the extra ,value added products have really helped us .

[@Jonathan-bf6nh]

Awesome

[@oldnorthstateoutdoors2002]

As Chris said. Know your market, and I would add know your competition. You need to treat each little venture as a separate little business. Again as Chris said watch your inputs. DONT GO IN DEBT. I sell eggs both duck and chicken now. Two years ago I couldn't give them away. Local honey sells really well here. I sold out last year in under an hour. Great advice as always Chris.

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

Honey sells good here too and we've sold a bunch of hatching eggs this year

[@oldnorthstateoutdoors2002]

Back to not being able to give eggs away. I sold my ducks and actually made money on the ducks overall.

[@Mael01369]

Chris please post a couple quick videos like this one each week and I believe you will make money off the vids. You are a unique wealth of knowledge and you aren’t afraid to share. People can sense it even if they don’t know it. Your following will grow quickly if you constantly share your knowledge and thoughts.

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

I've got a lot of topics I could cover that would really help people I think . Problem is getting the videos done a lot of times I just don't feel good enough

[@ranchorey.]

You're so right, Chris! Heck, I do not even make enough to break even! I'm still in the negative! At this point, everything I grow is for our own consumption. I keep seeing other channels bragging about making 4k to 5k per pig? Really dangerous to the new homesteader who's starting their new path. Really bad and misleading information out there! By the way, when are you making another live? Thank you for keeping it real! 💯

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

Buddy, I'm listening to everything you're puttin down. One way I'm saving on my gardens habit is if I grow it I don't have to mow it. I just can't stand seeing a half acre of bottom ground not in a nice stand of sweet corn. I definitely put out more than I get back money wise but it makes me happy to play around with old junk equipment and produce something good to eat. Justifies my antique tractor habit too.

Big difference in the growing season down here , we're pretty much year round

[@jvin248]

Garden suggestions: winter squash, dry beans (I'm trying Jacob's Cattle as an experiment among my others) , tobacco (pest control, big experiment here in the north). ... Look at getting open pollinated heirloom seed to plant, that way you cut your "$100 seed corn" bill after the first year and if you get a marketable variety you can sell via your youtube channel, either for grinding or for seed (like $5 per half-lb could fetch $500/bu). You could probably test with hunters two different corn piles and see what the deer eat first (perhaps even a short youtube video clip sales evidence) -- then grow and sell what the deer demand. Twelve-row Hickory King is fun for huge hominy and authentic tortillas. I'd mentioned in another video, one hog farmer said after switching to heirloom corn his litter sizes increased by 20%. Egg layers need higher protein corn to keep production up and could be locally valuable like you said chick sales are for you. Note that heirloom corn needs more in-row seed separation to perform well (10-12in vs hybrids that often get planted closer to 6in, a mistake I made last year). Order a bit of heirloom corn and try in areas around the yard you haven't dedicated yet (my wife isn't happy about the front yard corn field but these are uncertain times, and I add sunflowers).

I'm in a state where they promote pavement and development so much it's sad.... But on a positive footnote if you're on a quarter to an acre property anywheres near these places that have lost the good farming culture ...and you present it. All the neighborhood will buy the better produce and eggs and meat from you if they have a choice over the store. I witnessed a man that worked at selling all his star fruit from one tree in retirement which he fed massive compost piles to ... And sold to tourists for #4 and $5 dollars each. There was no competition left in the city. One tree bank account. Another man started his egg buisness had the only birds in town ..he made his city worthy pay to hold down expensive land. I've seen $30k u pick orchard in a busy town on an acre that was only 1st year production. I've taken a small city lot and paid my mortgage bill with backyard tomatoes in dutch buckets. It's just some inspiration for the folks close to bigger cities. It's five bucks right now in the store for a frozen bag of vegetables. I've never seen it like that before

[@jvin248]

You're completely right about the used equipment. I grew up on a farm of repaired auction finds. When you can buy a used tractor for less than the down payment on a new tractor you do it, even if you can't fix it yourself -- get a local guy to fix it as you get money. You can rattle-can spray paint it to keep from frightening the neighbors if you want. The new machinery breaks down as often as the old and is much more complicated and expensive to fix -- and because you bought new that is likely your only tractor where if you buy used you often find a spare backup tractor along the way and can get the job done. Same with the 'gotta have a pickup'; slap a hitch on that SUV eighty percent of the population seems to drive and pull a trailer.

I just got into pigs. I was wondering about how many acres of feed corn do I need to plant to feed four sows and their litters for the year.

[@andrewhamilton2121]

Figure 100 bushel of feed per acre your sows will eat 5lbs a day for 3/4 of the year, little more during gestation x 4. Then your feeders full feed old rule of thumb was 3 to 1 ratio feed to gain. Ideally you get 8-10 weened twice per year so 80 hogs a year roughly x 1000# of feed.

[@HomesteadingtheHardWay]

Andrews pretty close . Yield on corn can very from 70 to 250 bushel an acre depending on soil type , rainfall , variety, spacing and about a dozen other things . I usually plan on 4 acres for mine but it's good corn ground and usually picks at least 180 . If your selling most of the pigs as feeders it takes about 100 bushels a year per sow and that will cover the piglets and boar whatever you feed topping out will be added to that 3 or 3.5 to 1 on feed conversion is probably a safe bet

With that new tractor, even a $15,000 new compact tractor, there is a disposable income that is being hidden from you, but youre being led to believe a bunch of garbage.
