I'm currently managing a 2,200 acre irrigated hay farm in SE Oregon. It is selling and therefore we're hoping to move back where our family is and where we use to live. I also have many years of experience in construction and have owned my own construction companies. I also currently own a 30 acre irrigated farm. I grew up on a farm and helped my family raise cattle, sheep, and horses as well as make hay and crow cereal crops. I have management and finance experience.

Acreage

Farming Practices

Please elaborate on the type(s) of agricultural operation you plan on running.

I hoping to find a retiring farmer who's interested in helping a beginner farmer get started and take over their operation. I'd love to find a hay, crop, range, livestock type farm or ranch.
