You sound like someone who might have an urban liberal’s
understanding and appreciation of agriculture and
agriculturalists.

Coincidentally, my dad, a WIA WWII paratrooper became a
farmer after college, returned to school for an ag teacher
credential, started two HS vo-ag departments, and
retired as California State Asst FFA advisor. He earned
a PhD in vocational education along the way. He passed
in ‘15 after surviving 70 years with a titanium plate in
skull from his war wound. Pop despised the Green Acres
TV program because it depicted rural people as morons
while there were no such programs that revealed the reality
of rural people.
