MODERATORS
I have multiple spreadsheets, have to monitor and adjust to a lot of different conditions, have to actively monitor pests and plant growth and react to those (and predict for the next year and be proactive), and a bunch of other stuff. Farming tends to very much follow a predictable schedule insofaras you know in any given season what you will be doing and what you need to be getting ready for.
Okay, maybe not simple. Repetitive, though. I see you guys driving back and forth across a field all day.
With predictability I meant more like you have no idea when it will be wet or dry (for example), and everything depends on that. Sometimes you have to work hard pretty much as long as the sun is up, or at least that's how it was in my family's farming days. They would even eat on their tractors while they kept going. Other times it's too muddy to do anything.
