I'm sure my ancestors (asia) were farmers. In Europe now though it's a bit shit to be a farmer, you can still make a living but that's it, you're at the mercy of low prices and you can't really do anything about it.

my family were farmers. back in the day you could make a real living from it. these days with supermarkets hammering prices, protectionism and globalization the only way farmers come out on top in the west is if they hung on to their land and then sell it, probably to some evil corporation. I reckon the infection of corporatism into farming is gonna bite us on the ass some day.

we are seek for farm land for farming around nuts, My nephew and my dad are infected from the side of the corner after retirement.The main madur in brazil is the laborers agricultural workers. Kilosu migrosta $ 4 purple milk, wholesalers our best purple plums are 40 cents.Until that fruit is collected, medicine, fertility, worker, collection work is not as easy as you might think. Those who deal with this work leave the house at 6 o'clock in the morning and enter the house at 8 o'clock. It works under the sun.Although the sales prices of the state are quite the same as the stock market, it is urgently required that the buyer price policy be taken into consideration for those women who have recovered from the distant villages.
