The role
What a farmers n.e.c. actually does, day to day.
As a farmer, you grow food and raise animals on your land. You decide what to plant, when to plant it, and how to look after the crops as they grow - watching the weather, managing pests and disease, and making sure animals have what they need.
Your days are physical and varied. You might be ploughing fields, fixing machinery, checking on livestock, keeping records of what you have planted and harvested, or talking to other farmers and advisers about new ways to do things. Farming means working with nature, so you have to be flexible and ready to solve problems as they come up.
