i can remember a text from ?, saying that in the 20's and 30's, when ag was at it's worst. The farmers, who left the hedges and ditches, with only minimal 1st aid, tied the fences up with string/wire, and spent nothing, came out of the recession, geared up, ready to go, those that kept everything up together, either failed, or were not in a position, at the end, to rapidly move forwards. Basically, dog and stick farming coped well, proper farming, got hammered.

It's frowned upon by the supply industry and generally discouraged because you don't need to buy so much from them.why is dog and stick farming not proper farming ?
Read something similar years ago in the farmers weekly, it stuck in my head for some reason.i can remember a text from ?, saying that in the 20's and 30's, when ag was at it's worst.
