Fighting 'Solar Farm' Installation

[Hay Dude]

Hay is a crop, and is farming as much as any other crop is farming.

Thank you for that.

What is your definition of a "real" farmer?

Something he knows nothing about, but plays a real good “pseudo-expert” lol.

I’ll get on the phone tomorrow and tell my accountant that all the Schedule F’s he filed for me were bogus, because /Pine says it’s not farming

Ahahahahahahahahahaha. I can’t stop laughing. OMG please help!

People can huff and puff until they are as blue in the faces as Smurfette...it's not going to change the fact that it is entirely an opinion whether a hay grower is really a farmer or not...

Just curious...what do you call a guy that owns no land...just a tractor, some implements and a truck and trailer...who only cuts and bales hay on other peoples land...?

In Alberta if you make $10,000/year in farm income you're a farmer. It doesn't matter how you do it. What matters is whether your producing a farm commodity. Hay certainly qualifies.

You didn't fix anything...inutritional facts don't mean didly...!

The grasslands (basically hay) kept the millions of bison alive for eons without any "farming"...
Just curious...not going to bother searching IRDC....!

but how many "crops" can you name that don't require planting each season? (fruit and orchard crops don't count)

Most of the real farms around here separate their pastures on a rotation and raise enough hay for their livestock...many own rakes etc but a lot of the machinery is loaned from farm to farm...

Oh Lord, quit before you make an even bigger _____ of yourself.

 

[Hay Dude]

hehehe...what I'm LMAO at is hay growers that call themselves farmers....too funny...!

like a "hay flea"...hopping from field to field...!

!!!

Damn, I guess all those schedule F’s are bogus. My accountant is a hay farmer, too.
Too funny piney, but don’t quit, you’re rollin!
“Did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”

 

[lman]

What argument...??
I could not care less about technicalities or nomenclature...just a hill of beans (NPI)...

BTW...around here...nobody spends anything on pesticides, weed control, irrigation etc., etc...on hay fields...fertilizer they get for free...lots of poultry farmers here... hay is second...

I just got off the phone with a friend's lawyer...the friend owns several sod farms in West central FL....they are owned through several offshore LLCs...my friend just sold me a small plot in the middle of one of the sod farms...I leased it back to him but I am still partial owner of a sod farm...so now I'm a farmer too...!!!

A farmer without a tractor.

One person with one dairy cow selling 40 gallons milk a week is a farmer.

Is that about what you hope to get from a cow?

Nooo...simple example. Whether a plumbing company has 1 or 100 employees, it's still a plumber. Anything that a farmer raises whether corn wheat or hay is a crop. Opinions don't matter.
You can eviscerate me if you want...feel free.

 

[Pixguy]

Exactly!
Thank you!

Do you find that fair to others who are subsidizing your array?

So a farmer that is raising energy, using solar panels is ,,,, a farmer!
