FARMER

Description, Education And Training, Outlook, In Action, For More Information



When most people imagine life as a farmer, they picture a lonely man working long hours in endless fields, picking corn, hoeing potatoes, and driving tractors. What they don't realize is that many farmers also work with animals. Dairy farmers work with cows. Poultry farmers work with chickens. Other farmers spend their days tending sheep, pigs, goats, turkeys, bees, and many other animals. It's true—grains and vegetables are a big part of the farming lifestyle, but so are animals. So come on! Pull on your boots, cinch up your belt, and beat a path for the barn!
