From left, Gary Whitlock, Daniel Brasher and Derek Whitlock fill a combine with fuel on the Whitlock’s soybean field in Rector, Ark. Gary, Derek’s dad, is retired but helped his son and brother finish up the soybean harvest. Derek is taking over his family farm this year as the fourth—and potentially final—generation to run the farm. Although Derek spent most of his life in the fields, his daughters’ lives have led elsewhere.
