University of Mount Olive alum Daniel Owen Kornegay, II is a third-generation farmer. He and his father own and operate DOK Farms LLC. The 1,200-acre land includes four finishing hog houses, cattle and various crops. “Farming is a family tradition for most,” he said. “For me, it is all I have ever done or ever wanted to do.” Kornegay knows that farming is a gamble, even duringa good year. There are so many factors that affect the bottom line including weather, insects, disease, transporation prices, demand, etc. Added to the list of uncertainites this year is the COVID-19 pandemic.
