I've always found it ridiculous how farmers are considered unskilled. Like just anyone can balance on a moving trailer while throwing hay bailes around. It's just soo easy to take a tractor apart and back together again because a gasket blew. It's so easy to have a biggillion different skills varying from field to field. Literally everyone I know can run a mile while carrying a sailt lick. Farmers are just dumb and untalented. Am I right. /S

Since when is farming considered unskilled?

Not the farm owners. They are usually the capitalists.

But "everyone" picking manually asparagus or strawberry or wine grapes is usually from a low income country or an illegal work, working for pennies.
