Sounds like you're in a tough spot. Keep in mind that 2/3 of the farm belongs to your uncles. Do you have any brothers or sisters? They have an interest in what happens to the farm too.

I'd say your best chance is to find the highest paying job you can, save as much as you can, and hope the place is still available when you have enough saved to swing the deal on your own. Land prices could well come down in the next few years, and if they go up much more the family will want to cash out when you can't afford to buy anyway.
