The California Farmer – Lots of Risks
It can be said that the life of a California almond or cashew farmer is hard enough. Imagine the investment , cash outlay , loans worries about the crop – availability of water , labor the problems of farm pests. Now the bigger and bigger problem and concerns for these farmers is well meaning environmentalists and bureaucrats telling them “what to do” and what is best for “them”. Imagine these people leaving home after a “day’s work” at 3;30 or 4 pm -pushing paper or a computer mouse . Compare the 24/7 life of the farmer or agricultural worker to that.
No investment , no agricultural worries , no costs or overhead. And just go home at night to “collect your paycheck”. What a life.
