[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 1913914, member: 5412"] I don't, and wouldn't have one of the dammed things on my property. I know it pays a bunch of money, but I not only farm the land, I also have spent tons of dollars and tons of hours putting in wildlife conservation sites. For me, its not about money, but seeing the wildlife flourish, and not have those swinging blades, and the fact I don't have control over my property. If I die a poor man, I'll still be happy that no government entity controls a part of my life. Just to head off any detractors, I don't take any government subsidies for conservation, or wheat production. Wind farms are detrimental to wildlife. Endangered Prarie Chickens, ducks, etc are victims to the blades, and you won't find a deer in the area. Not my cup of tea. Most wind farms come on line touting so many megawatts of energy for the consumer, but that figure quickly falls off to mechanical difficulties, no wind, etc. [/QUOTE]
