All participants were either under the age of 35 or had been farming or ranching for less than 10 years. At least one participant in each focus group worked another job away from the farm. These careers were all connected to agriculture in some way. Many of the participants were involved in family owned and operated operations. Several were working for other producers or working into agriculture operations. The YBFR were involved in multiple areas of agriculture from cattle to small grains as well as bison to pulse crops. The education level of the participants ranged from high school graduates to bachelor degrees and one participant with a master’s degree. Educational degrees primarily focused around agribusiness, animal science, and agricultural operation technologies. To protect the identities of the participants, all names were changed and identifying characteristics were removed from the transcripts. The overarching themes from the focus groups developed through constant comparative coding are described in the following pages.
