Yep. It’s no longer needed. Especially with few working the fields now, and when they do work it, they can work all night thanks to really cheap LED lighting. I live in farm country. The equipment can be running ridiculously late nowadays thanks to LED lighting on all the farm equipment and trucks. They surround themselves with “daylight”.
