I enjoy running equipment to feed and care for livestock and seeing the crops wich have been grown and fed to the livestock and seeing them happy and growing to make the farm succeed. I also have a little bit of experience with feild work and want to get more in the future. I have my own small herd of sheep wich I feed and care for after-hours. Also have bought a tractor to gain some more experience and use in the coming harvest season. I enjoy getting the most quality out of crops and livestock.
