[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 6280830, member: 946"] Define skilled? The problem with Ag is every situation is different and every farmer has a different idea on how to do things. As a employee you have to re learn everything on every job. I'm sure you're excellent on your farm but if I picked you up and dropped you in a corn field in Arizona and told you to run a forager crew, you'd struggle for a while. If you turned up for work at [USER=78]@Spud[/USER] place on Monday morning would you fit in? Each machine or grain drying/storage system and work schedule is different, you have to learn on the job. I think it takes a year on most farms to actually figure every thing out. Too many farms expect people to just turn up and know everything without any training up or guidance. 'Fit' is important too in Ag, for employees as well as farmers, I know lots of people that have given up on farm work because they couldn't find the right job or boss. [/QUOTE]
