[QUOTE="74honker, post: 2241974, member: 113930"] I completely agree with you that landowners or anyone for that matter having the rights of personal choice. BUT, I can tell you that farming the midwest is not like farming everywhere else. I've been in the AG field most my life and though there are thise small farmers that do struggle some, most have learned to play the game and it's now almost impossible for them to lose money. Between USDA payments, crop insurance programs that payoff like a Vegas slot machine whether they make a crop or not, etc. they can't lose. Now sure they'll all say their broke all while sitting in their $70k new pickup while their wives pack to go to the lake house for the weekend. Most of these guys are taking the hunting lease money for 1 reason and 1 reason only, GREED. Now they say well if you want to hunt my farms out bid the NR outfitter and it's yours. Not every farmer out there is this way, I know alot of good ones and great people they are, but my statements on the rest is the new normal just as DartonJagger has stated and EVERYTHING he stated is fact in this state.
