Now, the farmer drive HUGE tractors with GPS devices and they plant 24 rows of corn at a single swipe across the field. This is high tech stuff and an 80 acre farm is quite rare.

Lets all get together and prove you don’t need 80 acres and a team of oxen!
Just 40 acres and a mule! sarc/off
I too live smack dab in the middle of corn country. I own 147 acres of tillable ground. I use to farm it myself until it got to expensive. My tenant farms it for me now and it takes him about two hours with a 32 row planter and GPS. Last year it averaged 175 bu per acre, dry. Wet 192/bu/A.
This year look for corn and beans top go hog wild, price wise. Due to the Corps of Engineers flooding millions of acres along the Mississippi.
