Does Iowa have a single tree?
Does Iowa have a single mountain?
Is Iowa just all farms and barns and corn growers? Kinda
Open with tv commercial about farming or something.
The good ole’ Merican farmer. They don’t make them like they used to. Okay they still do, but there’s less of them nowadays. That was in Iowa way back in 1956. Theres a saying - it isn’t the farm that makes a farmer. It’s the love, the hard work and the character.
Someone also once said Farming is a profession of hope. That’s right. It’s a gamble. An educated guess at what you’re gonna get. There’s all sorts of things that can screw you up as a farmer - weather, prices, and of course, politics. A farmer can’t control the weather, and prices always fluctuate, but farmers CAN try and influence politics and they try to do that as much as they can.
But farming’s changin. The ways they farm change and the types of people who farm these days has changed too. And the profession isn’t the same anymore. A recent study showed that depression and suicide are rampant among US farmers, due to the isolation, the high demands of work and the financial highs and lows that come with this noble occupation. In fact farmers take their own lives more often than any other occupation, even the military.
Here in Iowa, they keep pluggin along. Sometimes - a lot of times, farmers feel like they’re losing all the battles. Oh Iowa is still kicking butt when it comes to agricultural production. But the future of farming here is anyone’s guess. But we’ll get to that later. Cause, despite what you think you know about Iowa, it isn’t 100% farms. There’s other stuff going on here, come on now. YOU just might be considering Iowa as a potential new home. And you probably aren’t going to farm. No YOU want to know what other stuff there is to do here, where to live and what it’s like here in one of our finest states.
This is Iowa.
