Time and time again I have heard that the next generation of farmers is disappearing - they're leaving the farms and not coming back". Montana farmer leave the farm because country failed to deal with resource. Agriculture in Montana has been worse than before because of several reasons. The apple trees drained all nutrients out of soil. This mean nothing can grow in these soils anymore, so agriculture areas in Montana have decrease by the time. Furthermore, water supply in Montana starts to diminish. The number of glacier is decreasing, so irrigation for farming is less due to the restrict amount of water.

However, apple orchard was the profitable business, so people did it in many areas. In addition, Main water resources in Montana come from glacier, and the weather is getting warmer and drier. Snow on mountains and glaciers obviously decrease.
