Same here. 
I have a number of Colorado/Nebraska/Kansas relatives on my Mom's side (mom had 11 siblings, which makes for LOTS of aunts/uncles/cousins  ) who farm (a couple are 4th generation family farms), but are now reevaluating & kicking themselves for supporting that which they're now seeing first hand...has been detrimental to their own best interests.
They're extremely worried that the current problems, have the very real potential of making them the last generation...and they'll have to sell out to a corporate entity.
My fingers are crossed and I almost dread seeing another Facebook post or e-mail...from any of them.
