minus-squarevaionko@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 days agoI work at a farm currently, today I spend a few hours picking rocks off a field after new soil had been spread there. While most of the farming itself is done by machines, there’s a lot of maintenance stuff that needs to be done by hand.
