Farming
Nowadays, farmers and ranchers are likely to know as much, or more, about world events as they do about the pests or bacteria that are eating their crops or affecting their cattle. Moreover, today’s farmers often incorporate the latest breakthroughs in science and technology into their farming practices. Modern farmers also are more likely than farmers in the past to be female, Hispanic, and older than the average worker.
But in many ways, modern day farmers are not so different from the farmers who preceded them. They are hardworking, independent caretakers of land and animals, and jacks-of-all-trades. Farmers enjoy having variety in their work, providing the world with food and fiber, and being their own bosses.
