Modern equipment and farming practices have changed grain production from a highly labor intensive operation to one that mandates the use of large and expensive equipment. Typical wheat farms today require a large investment in land in order to sustain a profit. Wheat farmers are among the world's biggest gamblers, putting their labor for a year into the production of a crop that is always at risk to unknown markets and the ravages of weather and Mother Nature.
