[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 4887202, member: 63856"] It also depends a lot on what type of experience you want on farms, as you alluded to it seems to be reasonably common to simply become a machine operator/milk harvester and miss out so much of what happens on a farm. Even many farmers drop the ball due to being full-time machine operators instead of being the CEO so, what hope do their staff have of furthering themselves? I personally feel the next generation would benefit more, going to somewhere 'primitive' - discarding all the commonly held knowledge about farming - these advanced countries will soon be looking for answers as to how to farm in a more sustainable fashion so why not get the jump on it now? All this is commonplace on ranches around the globe, and they wouldn't know what a Claas Jaguar 940 is, let alone what you do with one.. That's how they make a living from farming! [/QUOTE]
