If I had over $8000 in farm expenses, why is my net farm income $0?

One possibility is that you entered a business asset and chose to depreciate it using the Section 179 option. When you do that, you deduct just enough of the cost of the asset to reduce your income to $0. Any remaining depreciation is carried over to future years.
