Hi all,

I would like to ask your advices and insights.

The situation:

Wifey decided that she would like to move to Issan. Not a surprise, really. She also thinks she like to do a little farming, a bit surprise, but am pleased that she didnt get yet too confortable to expect me to do all.

Found a property, that consist the following:

A acceptable house, around 8 Rai of farmland, pond to irrogate it, so, can plant rice more than once a yr ( vs. father-in-law's land), a good building for chicken, enough place for storage (dry), just outside a village.

If deduct the building's price, the land costs about 100.000 baht a Rai.

My questions where i am looking to find some help:

1. Is this price acceptable?

I know land and land comes for different prices, consider this can be irrogated around the year.

2. Is 8 Rai of land capable to turn some profit, apart for few spring onion, and carrot for my Sunday soup?

What would you suggest to plent, apart from rice? Corn came up as an idea for example.

3. Keeping chicken, can it be profitable? Pigs?

There is some room to expand current buildings in place... Idea is that maybe using some of the farmed rice/corn, turn that into a bit more valuable meat, while manure could be used to fertilise, so, be a bit more self sufficient.

I know this size isnt something many might consider, saw on the forums 100's of Rais flying, but i simple dont have and wont have probably that money to afford.

Nor we are looking to turn millions of baht in a year, the range i am looking for is about 100-200.000 baht /yr in profit, something that pays wifey's ( maybe some helper's) effort.

So, open to suggestions, ideas, insights and opinions...all greatly appriciated!!

pls spare me from some BS answers, there is plenty thread for that!

This isnt a troll, nor flexing ideas, have all the resources to proceed, but need some more confirmation before the final jump, since changing a life in town ( though i work away from home a lot) is something i dont like to do without thinking over well. And here comes your help in!

Thanks on advance for anyone taking the time to answer!
