Employment in Agriculture
Employment in agriculture be both the most challenging and most rewarding path one
can take. Providing food, fiber and fuel to a growing world while working in concert
with nature can provide the farm and ranch employee with immense fulfillment. At the
same time, though, the things that can make agricultural work so enjoyable can also
provide significant adversity.
Thus, many farmers and ranchers can be heard uttering that old saying "good help is
hard to find these days." There are a number of obstacles facing agricultural employers,
ranging from the fact that rural areas with smaller populations may simply have a
smaller pool of qualified job candidates to the numerous variables in farm employment
itself.
