The Future of The Family Farm

The future of farming will probably always “feed the world”. The future of family farming probably will have fewer family farms because of people liking living in cities, more chemicals/fertilizers and the dependency on the weather. They probably will have machines doing most of the work in the future. The biggest change in family farms will probably always be technology. The average family farm’s amount of acres would be about thirty acres. Farming is like a business. Some of the big companies will join together. Marketing in farming is very important. In the future there might be less family farms but there will always be farmers in the world.
