@Nicholas BurchIf you do not have some type of debt structure in place raising money will be more difficult as i was the LP I would want to know what the debt structure is including LtV, term, rate and exit strategy etcSyndications are like learning to drive a tractor trailer.

They should look into a Chicken Tractor as well with such a small space because they will destroy the grass and could move them around the yard.

Think of this as an agricultural business where you are underwriting new capital costs for improvements (better equipment, staffing, operational changes, etc), yearly input costs (crop insurance, general liability insurance, fertilizers, chemicals, diesel fuel, equipment repairs, electric for water pumps, irrigation repairs, tractor operator labor, vine care labor, harvest labor, etc), and estimating yield (tons/acre) and sale price ($/ton).

Tractors displacing a dozen farm workers for each tractor put in service. 

Thanks Bill,I guess where I kind of wonder is this:If I buy a tractor or some other piece of machinery vital to my operations, I can offset income with that, as it is a cost of doing business.

Here is a story for you, I have a tractor trailer rig to pull my race car and hotrods places, a CHP inspector told me that 90% of the people from his country that drive trucks come to America buy a simitruck and drive with no licence!

But don’t worry with the shortage of co tractors you will still have more work than you can handle 😎 

What ever you lend on as collateral, you need to understand the market for that collateral, be it machinery, farm tractors, cars or real estate.

I'd also think someone running a diesel engine such as a tractor for farm use only would be interested in buying the fuel. 

Then we came in with a tractor and bush hog and mowed down years of growth , it looked much better .
