F arming is not an easy job. Fighting the weather is a constant situation. Either it's too dry, too wet, too cold, too hot, too windy, not windy enough. Every aspect of the weather affects farming. Fields can be destroyed by grasshoppers or red spider mites.
Weeds can become out of control and drastically reduce yields.
F arming is a HUGE gamble and even if farmers work as hard as they can, are as honest as they can be, their lives are controlled by others. Their livelihood is in jeopardy constantly. F arming is a ' labor of love' for most farmers. S ome day soon, it will be too late to save the Family Farm. The Family Farm is about to go.
