http://www.farmersfeedus.org/ia/corn/10: In this video, Pam Johnson describes the best thing about being a farmer: I farm and I love my job. Farming presents me with an opportunity to fully engage my mind, skill sets, and body every day to manage and implement a business plan for a small business. It is all about family and business. On my farm, four generations interact in an activity that benefits the common good. We are able to use the collective wisdom of all the generations that have come before us and make decisions to provide opportunities for the next generation. Farming is a challenge and an opportunity with a range of diverse daily activity. We have to be creative and good problem solvers and adopt new ideas and technology; it is never boring! We have a firm connection to the land and to nature. We nurture crops throughout the life cycle and are able to see the results of our work and management decisions. We are caretakers of the land and are challenged by maximizing the potential of growing crops. To meet additional farm families, visit http://www.farmersfeedus.org.
