General farming (3 years+) - I am originally from India and I grew up on a farm. We used to have livestock (cows and buffaloes) and grew crops as well on a 6 acre farm. The crops we grew were wheat, rice and mostly sugarcane; though we have dabbled a little bit with lentils, green leaf veggies and potatoes.
Do you have a business plan?
Yes - To start with, I would like to grow wheat (or open to suggestions for alternatives as well) as I have experience with it and consider it to be less risky. In the later years, I want to include more veggies and green leafs.
Do you have financial resources available to start your farm?
Yes - Have $5000 saved up for this journey
Do you have access to other financial resources (such as a financial partner, loan, etc.) to start your farm?'
No
