      Watering the crops has a few ways it can be done. Primarily center pivot irrigation, which goes around in circles makes narrow tracks. Flood irrigation, water runs along the ground from one end of the field to the other. Dryland, which you rely on the weather to provide the rain. As for driving in the field, you'll be turning on some crops on the end rows, but its not typically a lot of damage and if its young enough it'll grow back.

      @@PlayingwithproxiesA hydrogen fuel cell can be installed in any kind of car, even a truck.
      Hydrogen has about 3 times as much energy per unit of mass as gasoline, however due to the troubles associated with storing liquid hydrogen, compressed hydrogen is used far more frequently.
      You‘ll run out of fuel faster because the energy of compressed hydrogen per volume is about 3.7 times less than gasoline, however to get compressed oxygen you only need an energy source (solar panels and windmills suffice) and some relatively small equipment used to split water molecules and store hydrogen.
      For a farm out in nowhere it might be a lot more economical to just have some solar panels/windmills produce energy and turn water into hydrogen instead of driving all the way down to a gas station to get gas.

    Gotta love how the trolls always are in the comments for every kind of video just bitching about things they have no idea about and no matter how thorough you could explain it they still bitch. An how about the trolls that go on about how easy certain people have it, in this case they say every farmer is rich. How many of them would do the physical work needed and how good would they manage their money? There are so many factors to making your income as a farmer. How about how its a gamble from how much your input cost is and than how there's no guarantee on the price you'll get since theres many things that make the price for crops fluctuate. An lets not forget everything is affected by weather conditions. How many of these trolls could make a decent income with all these factors. And alot of farms have been acquiring more land when they could afford it while others sold their land because they couldn't afford it or no family members want that kinda of work. There was also comments about how all farmers have new pickups, yes alot have new or near new trucks but trucks are also used for working so that argument is a dumb one. Why can't people use comment section to ask good questions and answers instead of just trying to argue about things they have no idea about?

      Large doses of aflatoxins can lead to acute poisoning (aflatoxicosis) and can be life threatening, usually through damage to the liver. Aflatoxins have also been shown to be genotoxic, meaning they can damage DNA and cause cancer in animal species. There is also evidence that they can cause liver cancer in humans.

    Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers (Urea ) contribute very little to the ecosystem or structure of the soil. May actually decrease soil fertility due to chemical nitrogen stimulating excessive microorganism growth, which, over time, depletes organic matter in the soil.Excess nitrogen has also contributed to acid rain, polluted drinking water, and caused oxygen depletion and “dead zones” in water bodies such as the Gulf of Mexico, which causes serious harm to aquatic wildlife.

      Yup, urea is also a fertilizer that is very harmful to the environment; it’s production creates a decent bit of co2, it is very susceptible to denitrification, it is very water soluble, and it has adverse effects on seed germination.

      Same here. We run a little diversified farm. If one crop fails we let it go but we have 20+ others to rely on in the same season. And we sell direct to consumer so our margins are reasonable. Failure can still happen on our scale it’s just less risky…….
