[QUOTE="JockCroft, post: 8201676, member: 166068"] A very interesting thread. Times change. Reason's change. Seasons change Farming over the last centaury or more has grabbed innovative ideas and ran with them. Some stayed the course, and some didn't. The important fact is that farmers and workers developed new skills and perfected them quickly, probably more than most other industries. That same ability will redevelop skills that may be considered lost. They will probably improve ways it was done if its a practical task. The knowledge resource's are at most peoples fingertip nowadays. The only danger I see is with science where too much miss information is published by biased, and blinkered authors, even peer reviewed, where that is usually by an equally biased and blinkered "researcher". When it comes down to it, decisions on livestock cropping or weather, how much is our instinct, a sub-conscious knowledge gained through time and experience. Therefore the younger ones whither brought up in farming or from different backgrounds have to gain experience. It would be a great topic to research. Where can I get a grant to research all this?
