Roy Lynn Jr., 33, once set a corn yield record in Schoolcraft, Michigan, quits farming amid low prices and high interest costs. He says the 1980 grain embargo and 1981 bumper crop kept prices down, and hog herd losses in 1982 forced selling. He insists he would not return to farming for any price, calling farming too hard for too little reward.
