You'll Love It if...
You love being outside. The idea of spending all day outside no matter the weather sounds amazing to you.
You love fixing things.The more things you can fix yourself, the less money you need to pay for repairs. If you work on someone else's farm, your repair skills will add value to their business!
You love working independently. Farmers are known for being their own bosses — even as an apprentice on a farm, you probably won't be supervised all the time.
سوال
Jenny is choosing some courses to take that will help her learn to be a farmer. What should she choose?
All of these classes are applicable to being a farmer. Famers need to know about crop production (agronomy), livestock, AND be able to do accounting for their business.

You like vacation days. Plants and animals need food, water, and care every day. Most farmers rarely leave their farms for more than one or two days a year.
You don't like dirt, bugs, or early mornings. Most farmers work from sunrise until evening.
