Do you know how long it takes for crops to grow?

What are you implying with that comment?

That long work days are still necessary, technology isnt fully there to automate everything

But the farmer is not eating all the crops them self. And it doesn’t have to be one farmer doing all the work.

have you seen modern farming? these days there are tractors that can be set to follow a route and the driver just has to monitor things.

yeah it's not completely automated, but it's extremely disingenuous to imply that we're closer to traditional farming than we are to full automation.
