Need tips for a first gen farmer

So I’m starting up farming on my own in 2022 and trying to get things lined up now. Starting small. Need tips. First year I’m growing popcorn and that to be my main crop. Needing tips and info on anything that you may think will help me. If your near sc I’d like to know what you rent land for on average. Thanks.

Do you actually have anything lined up at all or is this just a dream right now?

I’m getting things lined up as we speak

Is there a popcorn farmer around you? If so offer them a meal or money or something to sit down and share what they know with you. Best money you’ll spend.

Sadly no. I’ve tried to contact a popcorn farmer and I’ve had no luck.
