Farmers make the world go round

It’s funny how a farmer spends countless hours getting land ready, from disking all the way to planting.

He spends $1000’s of dollars on fuel, equipment, and repair bills. He spends many hours praying for rain or sunshine instead of sleeping. He sweats like no other job will make you

He works like most people wouldn’t. He gets yelled at and cussed out by people that get caught behind the tractor traveling down the road, and he spends many times of the day wondering if it’s worth it!

The deer, coyotes, hogs, coons, gophers, grasshoppers are just a few pests to contend with!! He does all of this for what??? Ask yourself, “Why would he do that?” The answers are all around you..

The plate of food sitting in front of you, the clothes on your back, the shoes on your feet, and the last answer is the is the one that puzzles most people.

It’s the dust, love for agriculture, and the satisfaction knowing he done his part at the end of the day! I’d like to thank all the farmers out there that help make the world go round!
