I still remember going to a John Deere opening in Boise City OK back in 1950 or ‘51. Last time I was at such an opening. I was 4 years old.
I remember when Belrus and LONG tractors were sold in the 1960s. I believe they were made in the Commie nations at that time. Haven’t seen one in years.
Yes. But the production by value is not 88 % small farmers’ production; it is 88% ALL family farms’ production, including the BTO ‘family farm’ production.
Always been RED here, too.
Except for the combine and lawn mowers.
West of there has to be one of the loneliest corners of the lower 48. Something makes it especially empty even when compared to areas I know are more empty and bigger. The country along 87 looks like it was made for a Western.
There are more people on our little Ozark town (4000) than in the entire Cimarron County. Same for next door Union County NM where we lived in 1950.
