Farmers had nothing to do with it. They work when it’s light, they don’t really care what the clock says. It’s generally been pushed by people who want more hobby time after work, and couldn’t be bother to shift their own schedule so they convinced the government to make EVERYBODY change their schedule.
That is easier said than done. If you have a 9-5 job you are stuck there till 5. I personally like DST. I like the extra time in the evening and my wife likes it too.
Look it up.
