Jerry Thompson stop being a snowflake

Tom I like your channel

Jerry Thompson I m the fifth or sixth generation raising cattle and you must not know anything about farmers your an idiot we bring them in the house if they start freezing after birth we put them in barns to calve and spend every night and day checking the cows for issues it's people like you that comment on something you nothing about go get you a salid and a soy burger if you not able to handle it

Jerry Thompson -- Why, is that what you want to watch so you can yank your junk to it? Go away, animal snuff fetishist.

Report the account for harassment.

Gotta love self-professed animal lovers who don't give enough of a fuck about animals to learn anything about them. They don't care about animals, just some idea they made up about what they think they are. They like to use animals for their little stories because animals can't laugh at them.

John Hunter Yes, absolutely agree with both of your comments

Yeah pretty sure that's on me! lol

Mark Mortensen I

That's a very involved question. It really depends on what kind of operation you're applying for and the size of it. If it's a small farm, you're probably going to be doing something of everything, including the some of the manual labor yourself. On larger operations you may be sharing the work with several managers, each of you doing something different...this person might be overseeing the finances, that one is overseeing livestock care, and that other guy may be in charge of sales. Farmers need to be jacks of all trades and be able to do a very wide range of things. In a very general sense you will need some strong math skills, marketing, sales, people skills, solid knowledge of the biology and ecology of your stock and your location, understand legal knowledge of the agricultural laws and regulations of your area, safety knowledge (because farming is a great way to die early), and being able to troubleshoot all manner of mechanical, financial, and physiological problems of your plants, animals, people, and profits. You need to be able to make sound decisions on what stock you want to work with (plants, fungus, animals, etc.), how much seed or stock to order, draw up planting and harvest schedules, figure out how you're going to plant and harvest it (there's a million different ways to do things on a farm), be able to manage people and tell them where to go and what to do, be able to keep your equipment and technology serviced, manage schedules for all employees, understand how the market works, decide when and to whom to sell your crops to for maximum return, figure out how to meet production goals, budget and manage cash flow, and most of all be creative and being able to innovate with what you've got in order to solve problems...because dealing with curve balls you TOTALLY didn't expect out of left field is a constant in agriculture. If you have no experience, then you're going to need a solid college education to get you started. You can get accreditation as a farm manager. Farming is an interesting job where you get to deal with all manners of highs and lows and "WTF?!" moments. You will need all your brains and brawn to pour your knowledge, blood, sweat, life, and tears into what you do with very little thanks or money for any of it. You will be angry, stressed, exhausted, frustrated, fed up, and wonder what the hell you are doing with your life A LOT. You will ACHE in ways you cannot comprehend and suffer physically as you age and your body wears out from the stress, labor, and environmental factors. You're also going to see and do amazing, beautiful, wonderous things not many people get to do anymore. Sunrises that will take your breath away. Thrills watching a newborn calf standing for the first time, or seeing the first green pokes coming up from the soil. Bust a gut laughing, and loving, and crying, and praying with the people around you. You will feed the WORLD. If this is your dream, your calling, your passion, then you won't want to do anything else and will smile on your deathbed. Let NOTHING stop you from achieving your dream. Best of luck and we hope to see you in the field someday. :)

longtail4711 -Were you talking about my question? I was talking about Farm Day and bringing in some draft horses and not about a farm manager. I'm not sure who's question you're referring to?

Mark Mortensen -- Ugh, i'm sorry Mark. I was replying to someone interested in learning about the requirements for being a farm manager, and KZfaq royally screwed up its comments section's functionality so it moves text into the wrong places.

longtail4711 --No problem I've done that before. Thanks for getting back to me.

Never do. They haven't caused any issues that would require it in our history.
