Without intending it, she has made a noteworthy impact on the relationship between farming, rural America and those who don’t farm, live rural or recognize where their daily bread comes from. She’s a 20 year old woman with multiples of wisdom and if you haven’t watched some of her YouTube videos, you should. Laurafarms.com

I’ll tell you ”how agricultural works”,,,,,, you take all your house money and invest it in fuel, seed, equipment, repairs and supplies and pray it doesn’t rain all spring/summer so you can make enough tonnage to pay all those bills and have a little left over for yourself.

At least that’s how non-government subsidized hay farming works…….
Row croppers many of whom are on the dole, hence the 20 yr old “birthing person” driving $350,000 tractors.

The reason I joined the tractor forums was to see topics related to agriculture, instead of seeing retirees riding around their houses with toy tractors, it was really a disappointment for me.

I am glad finally I found a video about agriculture in a "tractor" forum.


and by the way, please stop using different nick names in different tractor forums, it feels so weird when I realize it.

There’s a few in the “haying” forums.
