My sister's boys are 7th generation dairy farmers on the original farmstead. The road is named after the family. The main room of the original house and the dry-cow barn are over 200 years old (with huge hand-hewn beams ... VERY cool!)
Crop farmers may be doing well over the past couple of decades, but not the small dairyman. Have you seen the price of milk, lately? Family farmers can't make a living selling milk, anymore. But ... it's in my BIL's blood and he's passed that love on to his boys. They run about 400 head, down from 600 a few years ago (see "price of milk" for reasons!) They probably milk about 200+. The rest are all replacement heifers of various ages and a dozen or so steers.
In an effort to expand beyond the unstable (and dubiously profitable) milk industry, they're now making and selling their own cheese under the name Chesapeake Gold Farms.
