If you did, you probably didn't hear it in Illinois. Retirement is rarely practiced, according to a University of Illinois survey. Farmers just keep on farming. The survey of 13 counties found that farmers are twice as likely to continue working beyond age 65 as are people of similar age doing other jobs. About 1,700 farmers responded to the survey, and 25 percent were 65 or older.
