Let me guess, you need more?

more tress on the sides so i can't see the outside world. like a mile of trees between my land and the nearest paved road

The orchard will be bit of a long term project. Nice touch with the bees howevs. :)

goats and cows on a tenth of an acre each.

Lol, lmao

tiny pasture

barn that close to your house

Terrible ideas. Enjoy the smell of cow and pig shit every time you go on your deck. Just turn that land into more planting space and buy your meat from a local butcher. Also, each person in a household consumes 100-200 lbs of grain per year, and that amount of land allocated to grains does not look big enough to sustain that.

an american acre is 4000 square meters, Vytautas
that's like 1/3 of your country

You're gonna need 10 more acres of pasture and planting, more water storage and more barn space to do what that pic implies.

You niggers have no idea how much hay a cow devours overwinter

this is all i have ever wanted

I can maybe afford one of the beehives, still would have to rent the land for it

Yeah you do. You need barricades around all of this, mines buried outside the perimeter, and a lot of ammunition.

Just subdivide it into 4 lots, make $2 million profit, then buy an actual farm.

1 acre is 4000 square metres
ain't nobody able to afford that in today's day and age (unless you live in patagonia or middle of nowhere midwest america)

then buy an actual farm

why stop there? divide the farm into 4 and make 4 millions profit

There's a cunning workaround, in that when winter comes the tiny little barn is too small to house them anyway, so they will die from exposure and you won't have to feed them. In the spring just get new cows.

This is my farm.

Why are chickens getting the same space as fucking cows, who made this I'm triggered

let me guess, I need to live in bumfuck, nowhere and work 24/7 in my house and garden just to barely survive?

No market for that since a real farm would be in an undesirable out of place location with no town water or sewer.

Thank you big brained leaf. The guy who wrote those articles has no real-world experience. Self-sufficience requires 100-200 ac per family depending on the productivity of the land. You have to plan for your worst year, not your best, and you will be far less productive than commercial farms in terms of calorie yield.

Why would you put a bunch of angry bees in your yard?

Jesus that’s a lot of maintenance work

In the old farming days of early America 40 acres was considered enough to sustain a family iirc

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty_acres_and_a_mule

the empty plot of land is 1 mil. i just bought a house for 600,000 and it has a 0.23 acre yard

yep, it's round the clock work with maybe 6-7 hours of sleep, at best
no more vidya for you mister self sustained acre man

this is not enough to sustain cows what the fuck

Yes. I want to look in any direction snd not see or hear anyone. Only nature and the sea. And where is the solar power?

Not self-sufficient though. You specialize in one thing and trade for others, much more efficient that way. Cattle require a shitload of pasture and hay. When I had a hobby ranch I needed 2ac/head of cattle and another 2ac/head for winter hay. Droughts meant I lost loney just keeping the herd alive. Even easier livestock like goats, pigs, and chickens need winter feed. 40 ac might be possible in very productive areas in good years, but you're not reliably self-sufficient with it.

Convert that gross farmland into a guest house, pool, and tennis courts

I need only her.

You can buy my oil, fag.

That is a huge plot of land. It would cost easily 120k just for the land. None of the broke NEETs, shils and bots here has that kind of dough lying around.

Hire?

There are peaceful enough types available. Also the orchard will need pollination every spring. That part of the setup looks efficient.

How is 1 ac considered huge? I live in town outside of a major new england city and all the lots are over 1ac. Homes are around 1mm, but go out another 20 minutes and you can get productive farmland for about $2k/ac.

You can suck my balls, cuck

That much land would cost $799,000

I do, thats why I bale hay. I do an acreish of foodstuffs like this too for family and myself. Honey Select corn is the best I have grown so far... corn is a easy crop to do and store. I just shuck and freeze the ears in bags.. vac seal and it lasts longer. If you can get bags that will stay sealed.

It seems charming. I'd like three more acres to rotate crops. Andanother six for pasture and a small orchard. Then I'd tell the world to fuck off.

Where?You can buy 40 acres of nice farmland for $200K in Tennessee.

It's not really that much work, if you have a tractor to do the hard work.
The rest is just feeding the animals once or twice a day.

My grandparents were peasants and they were out all day in the fields, doing agri work. Because they had no machines.
But they barely did anything for the lifestock and chicken. They took the cows out for pasture in the morning and left them there all day.
Then fed the chicken and the pigs. And left for the rest of the day, they came back in the late evening and brought the cows back in the barn and gave them water.
Then cooked some food and went to sleep.
They didn't buy anything except electricity and sometimes some cooking oil. They produced everything else by themselves, including tea, jam, dairy cream, milk, cheese, bread, meat, eggs, water from the fountain well.

Come be white in America. Land is vastly cheaper. Muslims and kikes have Germany already.

Pasture

With that amount of land split between that amount of cattle, it'll be nothing but dirt before long

Where am i supposed to keep my harem.

NEEDS MORE LABELS

Buh buh but what did they borrow money for jews for then ?????????

An acre of land in my town costs over $1M.

realistically all you need is livestock and pasture
you can trade with farmers for produce and with fishmongers for seafood

It's very obviously drawn by someone with zero experience in either farming or even gardening and the anons that post it are exactly the same.

this is the myth of self-sufficiency (or sustainability).
no, you cannot grow your own food on your own. it's impossible. you need a community where people are specialized on their niche and some trading involved.
also some projects require many hands - like building a barn or a house, and people pool money and work.
the best you can do is to join Amish or something.
there's also a thing about cows: they required tens of acres of pasture and constant feeding. they require enormous quantity of work that I don't believe anyone here will want to put in. like, you're not doing anything else, like reading a book or reading on Anon Babble, playing a videogame etc. there are some Americans that have cows and know what they need, but the vast majority of Americans are fucking clueless. remember the new movie Dune? where the father of the kid was a mexican/spanish person so they gave him this image of a torreador fighting bulls? but they were coming from a planet full of... water. you can't sustain cows on a planet of water. so retarded, so ridiculous, and yet NPCs were gaping mouths at the movie. it was garbage.

youtube.com/watch?v=R-q86QYl5Bw

but also no niggers there's definitely a market for no niggers

Cows? You keep one for milking. That’s still tight for one, tho. I’d keep goats instead. I would want a bigger pond, tho. Not a duck pond. A catfish pond. But if you want cows you don’t necessarily have to own the land. When my grandfather began downsizing his farm (due to his age) he rented his fields out for another guy to keep cattle on. I’d kill gor that farm today. What happened is when he passed my boomer parents inherited and of course what they did was sell it as fast as they could.

I've tried this small yard farm. Its possible with a greenhouse and chicken coop to produce a lot. But this is all reddit city fag dreaming. Just based on the fact they think you can plant any plant or tree and it will magically grow in that climate. Kek, come to the south here and tell me how well your apple trees or spinach is doing. If you do end up the greenhouse route like I did, you'll end up spending all your energy and resources on that. It's a sin to not grow or produce something useful, but OP pic is retarded dreaming that involves mexican labor and jewish loans.

yes, i have a six acre homestead
you can get an acre of land in arkansas innnawoods with no codes, permits or inspections are required for less than $5k. its totally attainable if you have the skills. i did my whole homestead with $60k, $40k of which went into my house.

Some of it would work for supplementing your food with, but how the hell is a cow going to live on that little 1/16th acre sliver in the corner… what’s the tiny 10ft grain strip for? Feeding the animals for a week in the winter and then watching them starve? This is why you have to specialize and trade in a community

I raise cows. That 'pasture' is tiny. It'd be a giant mud pit inside a fewxweeks.

We live on a water planet you mongoloid.

cows

anyways, I wanted to say that instead of cows you can get a couple of goats and much, much, much easier, like 10 times easier.
there's a saying "the goat is the poor man's cow".
as soon as I see a cow in the plans of a farm I almost always assume people making them have zero experience in farming.

2bh a family doesn't need more then 2-3 cows. And a pasture like that could be enough if the climate is not dry and grass keeps regrowing.

For me the ridiculous part is that small area for grains. That won't even yield enough grains to secure bread for half a year.

70k for mine, yeah about 40-50 on the home(manufactured kit). The rest has been 10 years of just clear cutting and development. This is only the 3rd year that I've had a greenhouse or garden of any kind. It's all youtube hobby farm gay fun shit until you are dropping 2k on a small under powered tiller, 1500 on a chicken coop, 5k for a very small tractor that doesn't do much more than mow the grass. Lol yeah, its fun not having sponsors and government subsidies.

yes, but in the Dune universe they came from a planet that was completely covered with water to a planet that was completely desert. that was idea, that house Atreides tried to re-learn how to govern a planet. wind power versus desert power.

YOU CAN'T HAVE BULLS ON A FUCKING WATER PLANET.

Bulls require insane amount of pastures.

Oh, so much symbolism, it's for smart people!

Dune's Bull Symbol Is More Significant Than You Realize

OMG I just realized that the fighting the bull is just like fighting Harkonen!

fuck off. you people are clueless.

weeks? I have 3 weeks old chickens that will tear up a 20x16 run under them in a few days. The only people we see raising goats around here are mexicans. I guess they eat them? I have no clue. People will rent out troops of 5 of them to "mow" fields they are about to clear.

Father was jewish, in the lore the family is of greek heritage going back to agamemnon. The bull is a reference to how their grandfather died, being a comfortable king but deciding to live dangerously with animals. Foreshadowing the father’s decision to jeopardize his dynasty in an attempt to ally with the fremen, who are muslims in the book and not niggers like the movie. It’s analogous to the Western aid to Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion
Furthermore you have no idea what you’re talking about. The planet is green with large island archipelagos like… Greece. You know what they farmed in Greece to this very day?

farmland surrounded by NIGGERS

All farmland in white lands is expensive as fuck

ngmi

Its doable if you have the land, cattle that is. They are more work than most people would wanna put in. You mainly just gotta plan and keep fields for hay. You also gotta bale it and store it which is pretty easy, just need a place and equipment. Farm auctions are good place to get old tractors and equipment.

once you get good at growing things you have more than you need. this is what i get every other day once stuff starts coming in.

Lawn

Americans can't help themselves, can they? They just have to have their patch of...grass. Just grass that they keep really short and unnaturally green.

If I had this, I would live like a human being. That would be a huge upgrade. Why would I need more than this? Maybe a dog?

This drives the cost of farmland to insane prices, or to insane remoteness.

Sheep and goats?

How is that different from what you currently do

American lawn <<< English garden

The entire phenomenon of lawn keeping came from stupid Bongs. You did this to us

but like they didn't JUST have water. There was land. Ireland is a tiny island and we're famous for our livestock.

That's my dream, to be like an ox and just till fields endlessly, and then till some more, and then more, on infinite fields. Infinite happiness and constant self realization

I know, some people are just retarded, thinking that they can grow a cow in their backyards same as you own a dog.

You know what they farmed in Greece to this very day?

yes. goats. do you know what the symbolism of cornucopia is?

A single cow requires about 3 acres, divided into 1 acre plots.
Cow grazes in plot #1 for awhile and then is rotated to plot #2 to allow #1 to regrow. Repeat all year.
Plot #3 is used to grow hay/oats to be harvested and stored to use as winter feed.
A single chicken requires about 50 pounds of feed a year IF you supplement with free ranging options (where they can eat grass and bugs) otherwise it's about 80 pounds. This varies based on meat/egg production and breed type.

Am undeveloped acre is $2-$10k depending on which state you are in

Your dream is to be an early neolithic era slave

Based

It was originally for sports like bowls. Then it became a landscaping thing for aristocrats and although yes, the lawnmower was invented here for the middle class it's still just a patch of grass; not your entire garden. In relation to OP it just seems stupid.

Also, Americans invented the retarded chemical shit

You can find land for less. I got 56 acres of prime woodland with half a mile of lakeshore frontage for 625/acre. Just look around on landwatch

Americans play with their children and dogs in their yards.
I know that's difficult to understand in a country where you need a loicense for a swingset....

What town is that?

I thought it was the frogs.
steveevans23.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/thorstein-veblen-hates-my-lawn/

Ireland is a tiny island

Ireland is moderately sized compared to other European countries.

Ireland has a land area of 70,273 square kilometers (27,133 square miles)

Among European countries, Ireland is: 20th largest by land area (out of approximately 50 countries).

you're actually a wee bigger than the average (20th out of 50).

That would imply to remain in one place at the beck and call of mortals. Tilling fields endlessly means roaming and roaming. Just tilling fields. Till and till. Till

Let me guess, you really believe you can actually take care of all of this? You can't even clean your fucking room.

It's all youtube hobby farm gay fun shit until you are dropping 2k on a small under powered tiller, 1500 on a chicken coop, 5k for a very small tractor that doesn't do much more than mow the grass. Lol yeah, its fun not having sponsors and government subsidies.

$1500 on a chicken coop wtf? i made mine out of all the pallets i got when i built my house and a $100 roll of chicken wire. ive been doing all my garden work with hand tools and i would love a little kabuta but i dont really need to own one, you can rent on for $400/day where i live. my climate mild enough i dont need a greenhouse either. im trying to do mine the way they did it in the olden days. i have no plans on getting livestock other than chickens, rabbits and pigs as most of my land is wooded and i like it like that. i get a homestead credit which makes my property taxes $50/yr.

So we should get in pod--and eat ze bugs enjoy UBI?

Why the fuck were they farming moisture? What would they do with this alleged moisture?

this

Yes, I would like my house to be bigger than the chicken pen.

$1500 on a chicken coop

if he paid $1500 on a chicken coop he has no clue of farming
you can literally build a chicken coop for free with wattle and daub and have a fence of wattle as well, however, with $20 you can get a faster, cheaper, taller and better fence made by chicken wire.
these are just youtube farmers, posers or larpers. they do farming as hobby where they sink money into it, not making money out of it as a job.

Its wild how big cityfags think an acre is.

We do that in the park. Your garden is for plants, flowers, fruit or vegetables.

You need something akin to aquaponics where you have a high density of food production to square acreage ratio.
You don't need the duck pond if you have chickens.
You will want to include a compostor or other waste processing facility so you can both manage poop waste from animals/grass cuttings/food waste, and more.
You also need a water storage unit. It can be underground and made of concrete but it will have to be fairly large. Enough to buffer the average rainfall variation on a per year basis.
I also notice you don't have any in-house electricity generation.
Solar panels on all available rooftops.
A wind turbine a distance away from the house.
If you're next to a river you can swap for a hydroelectric system.
You also seem to lack any sort of meat processing area. You are not going to fit a cow carcass inside your kitchen and you will not want to leave it outside where flies and shit can get to it.
Freezer space is a requirement, chest freezer (most efficient) or better.
I see no AC for wild temp variations.
A long way to go but a good start.

this

That's a lot of fucking work to maintain all that

This anon knows, I own 4 acres and is such a pain in the ass to maintain it that I only focus on half an acre, I can't keep it with both working a job and maintenance, I fully understand why men in the past wanted to have 7 mini slaves until they turn 18. Farm life while idealize is way more frustrating than most people realize.

And before anyone say it no, we don't all owned the latest farm mega gadgets that makes maintenance easier, also mountain farming is harder that flatland farming

This isn't for you, cityscum. You're afraid of the dark anyway

Yes, I need space for 5 M.2 SSD.

ngmi

The niggers are in Memphis shooting each other for drugs and hos. You are a clearly here to demoralize. Get the fuck out kike or doomer tool of kike.

Fpbp.
And yes i dont need more. Its all i want honestly.

No bug farm? What will you eat, veggies and meat are for the illegals. Needs two barns. One for the animals, one for you(illegals need the house, have to keep them comfy so they can whip you properly when you aren't working the fields good enough)

For all non-muttoids: 1 acre is approximately 4047 sqm or 0,4047 hectares.

Drink it?
Its a desert planet how fucking retarted are you?
Water is obviously hard to come by but its still in the atmo. So pull it from there.

0,4047 hectares

Just round it to half an hectare, easier

Technically its a wee bit bigger than the median. The average is skewed by Russia

1 acre

Rarely affordable unless you buy land in a very remote area or flood zone.

That's how you get kiked out of 1/5 of the land

Can't wait for the frost danger to be over... this is only a fraction of what I will put out and only about half of the plants I have started and ready. The rest are a bit bigger and hardening off in gh. The average person with a tiller and or small tractor and a half acre of good gardening land could produce wayyyyy more than they could ever eat.. is just storing it all that becomes an issue then..> nothing beats home grown food and store bought tomatoes taste like disapointment.. I don't see how or why people eat them.. I mean I like tomatoes but only eat the ones I grow in summer because the ones you buy aren't nor will they ever ripen properly.

Are you the anon that keeps pigs?

Anyone with a decent sized back yard or a porch you can put some large pots on can supplement their diet pretty easily with some things. Peppers and tomatoes can be grown easily in a pot. If you feed them you can get lots of stuff to eat from just a couple plants depending on what they are.. Tommy toe tomatoes are prolific bearers. Sweet 100s for ease of picking.. tumbling tom yellow for lack of space.. I grew sungold through winter on my plant shelves with my tropical stuff. If I was container gardening I would not grow the large type tomatos you will get much more from growing smaller ones.. romas, san marzano bear well but arent ideal for eating but would beat any store tomato.. lunchbox size may do good in a container.

Naw, but I have considered it. My granny was just talking about how good the salt ham was they used to hang. We haven't raised hogs since I was a kid tho. Mainly cattle, chicken bros.

thats is my pig, whats up?

We haven't raised hogs since I was a kid

me neither until i got a pregnant sow off facebook for $100. picrel is some pork chops from the first litter i fattened. pigs are super easy and super cheap

Based anon. What the pig doing?

those look delicious, may look into getting one this summer. .I would say its a lot like with the beef.. i dont know what they sell at the store.. it must be old animals or something.. we had a couple steers butchered a couple years ago and the meat was so much better than even expensive steaks from the grocery.. I mean the sirloins and ribeyes would just melt in your mouth, can't rem ever buying a steak that good even at a restaurant. We had just been raising them to sell and not eating ourselves and talk about missin out. Gonna have to do that again soon.

1500 on a chicken coop

Last chicken coop I´ve ever built was a large wood box with a hole cut and the top covered in a linoleum sheet that was stapled on.

2k on a small under powered tiller

5k for a very small tractor

A used atv/quad is 1000-2000.

Actually no, this looks very comfy
