As an industry, we are renowned for working long hours. At what point does it get silly? What is a reasonable amount of hours for someone to average per week over the course of a year?
I thought you were an arable farm. What needs doing until 7pm in February ?It gets silly when you arrive at the point of living to work instead of working to live. To put it another way, it is when you stop living and merely exist. Where this point is reached depends on the individual.
I work from 7.15am until 7pm at this time of year (minus time spent in TFF ) 5 days/week. When the field work gets busy add weekends & later evenings. Harvest is 90 - 120 hours/week for 8 weeks then sub 90 hours until planting is done.

Crop walking, endless paperwork incuding projects, budgets, bechmarking, CPD, reporting to head office, "estate" stuff... and TFF!
A rare breed on this forum, a sensible farmer, well done, your dad may be a pain in the butt at times but at least he has passed on valuable advice .I'm 7.30-5 this time of year. All paperwork etc done in the evenings when there's some to do.
TFF morning, noon and night!
Adjust hours in the spring,summer,Autumn according to what needs doing.
Only ever work on a Sunday if combining or irrigating.
