When he said that all the land adds up to around 1 million acres all I can think is that's beginner level because the average station in Australia is usually over 1 million acres easy but the smaller farms are usually only small something like 10,000 acres that's a full-time property and full-time workers but if your closer to the city which a lot people are a hobby farm is close 500 acres, its weird how America has some much land that would be so good for grazing and growing crops but there are some many people over there.

I'd like to start up my own avocado orchard but don't know where to start and know nothing about farming. Do you think I should study an agricultural degree like agricultural science, agronomy etc or seek out an apprenticeship? How did you get started? I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
@donaldberger9163
@donaldberger9163 8 ай бұрын
Between the two options, I would say apprenticeship is better to help you determine if you actually want to do this. I don't think apprenticeshipd are normal in farming. You could achieve the same discernment by working on a avocado orchard. Having grownup on a small farm (chickens, cattle, sorghum, corn, pecans), let me assure you it is not much like the romanticized ideal that people often have who have never farmed. Sometimes, there are great and satisfying days...though usually it is more like the end of the day! A lot of times, you will labor in conditions too hot, too cold, too dusty, top itchy, too wet for your comfort. Then you will have to deal with all sorts of pests ..from hornets to snakes to painful fire ants (can be destructive to produce and deadly to humans on swarms) to plant diseases. If you own and operate the orchard by yourself or with a small circle of family or friends, you have the ever present concern of even surviving financially (crop insurance can help, but cuts into your possible profits) Working on a orchard for a year will enlighten you as to whether you will love it or hate it. If you are Already wealthy and you would just own an orchard and hire the labor, than a degree like you mentioned would be helpful. But you still should have some practical work experience on an orchard to make your best decision!

These are large back yards for a house. Look up 10 largest farms in Australia. Smallest 1.2 Million Acres. Largest Anna Creek Station, over 2.4 Million Acres. To put it in perspective, Australia has 8 of 10 largest farms in world. Look up also Cubby Station. Over 200,000 Acres. Grower of cotton. Largest irrigated farm in southern hemisphere. They have their own Cotton Gin on the farm. The water rights are so huge, one year they made more money selling water to other farms, than they would growing cotton. And Australia is a baby in age and population, compared to USA. So there you have it

@johnblyth9787 This video is talking about farms you are talking about ranches. King Ranch in southeastern Texas is approximately 825,000 acres (333,800 hectares). But a lot of ranchers in the USA have their animals graze on federal land. Livestock grazing takes place on 155 million acres of public land, about 25% of the nation's public land. The BLM (Bureau of Land Management) administers nearly 18,000 permits and leases to ranchers, who must pay a fee based on how much forage an animal requires for one month, called AUM (Animal Unit Month).

@donaldberger9163
@donaldberger9163 11 ай бұрын
It depends! If you are doing it by yourself (and/or your immediate family) and make your living off of it and your equipment is pretty used, you better be really fit and no chronic illness. You will be lifting heavy, performing strenuous repetitive physical activity often, Working long hours, worrying about many variables every day. There are very few days off ( mainly if it is very rainy or icy/snowy..then you are still having to do repairs or work on the books!) If you are already a rich dude, own many acres, much newish equipment, and have many employees, than you are more of a CEO like in a skyscraper office (but you'll spend a few hours daily in your pickup truck checking on aspects of the operation and running errands) and just have to be fit enough to think clearly and make good management decisions. I would say most farmers have been pretty fit throughout our first 200 years in the USA. Nowadays though, with Air-conditioned cabs and video screens in tractors, and combines, probably less so. Many days, long hours (like 12- 14 or 16) need to be put in to ensure One can make payment on millions of dollars of equipment...very stressful even with the hi tech "Toys!" One would almost have to make time to do some cardio or enjoyable physical activity to keep going for decades.

If you are looking to make the US median family income, you would probably need to farm (i.e. grow crops) on about 500 acres, assuming your million (or millions) of dollars in equipment loans are close to paid off AND you know what you are doing. It of course varies with the soil quality and the expertise of the farmer and often just plain good luck with the weather! When you think of "rich" farmers, that is more like corporate agriculture like ADM. Although I have heard that most of Nebraska's farmland is split up by only about 10 families (who would be rich, I guess...but NOT by Silicon Valley or NYC Fortune 500 CEO standards)!

These families combined are dwarfed by this: "The federal government owns around 620 million acres of land (about 27 percent) of the 2.27 billion acres of land in the United States. Around 92 percent of federally owned acres are in 12 Western states.[1][2] Four federal agencies-the U.S. National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) within the U.S. Department of the Interior, and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) in the U.S. Department of Agriculture-oversee roughly 95 percent, or 608 to 610 million acres, of federal land.[1][2]" Exerpt from a site exploring the constitutional side of federalland owning: "* As for acreage (“other Property”) within state boundaries: Under the Necessary and Proper Clause, the federal government may acquire and retain land necessary for carrying out its enumerated powers. This includes parcels for military bases, post offices, buildings to house federal employees undertaking enumerated functions, and the like. It is not necessary to form federal enclaves for these purposes. * But within state boundaries the Constitution grants no authority to retain acreage for unenumerated purposes, such as land for grazing, mineral development, agriculture, forests, or parks."

Believe it or not, this is because of the "Civil" war. Lincoln ushered in unfettered power by the DC government and they held on to most of the land out west, instead of it going to the individual states.

I'm pretty sure he will have found a way to keep his assets away from prying eyes and auditors, via umbrella companies or some such methodology. Difference between him and these folks, is that farming is in their blood and a generational thing, whereas with Bill Gates, it's a dead cert that he has quite nefarious plans in store for his use of the land he has bought. As with time, land is something that isn't made anymore, so it's an extremely valuable asset, whose worth can but only increase.

Indeed! I've been watching Jack Out The Back and he has a mere 440,000 hectares. Just 1,087,264 acres all by himself! And that is just a little one. The Rinehart organisation controls over 9 million hectares, 22,748,820 acres. We usually don't measure in hectares or acres because the numbers are so big; we measure in square kilometres. So Rinehart's holding is 92,061 square kilometres, bigger than some countries. Anna Creek Station is the largest single 'farm' in Australia measuring in at 23,677 square kilometres.
