saw him interviewed on this said as far as his experience goes knowing lots of farmers, the work load, complexity hours problems tech far outweigh anything an academic like himself or all the others he knows is capable of achieving.
same for commercial fishermen by the way

It's so easy, and yet Zimbabwe went from being "the breadbasket of sub-Saharan Africa" to a net food importer in the space of 3 years.
Which would give Bloomberg yet again, since the farm take-overs in Zimbabwe were "for racial justice", and the blacks could not keep the same growing standards as the former white farmers. How dare Bloomberg denigrate Zimbabwe blacks like that!! Racist!

Botswana and Zambia have invited in the White farmers, and it’s paying off.

Lol. He tells us about how you put a seed in the hole and up comes the corn. What about when you plant wheat or soybeans, Mike?
more difficult - you have to use both hands, sometimes have to dig a hole or a ditch if you want a bigger crop, be sure your share croppers understand proper procedures

But, Mikey has a ‘D’ behind his name, so don’t expect they will chide him about it.He didn't when he was mayor of NYC, so there is no shortage of NYTimes stories tearing him apart for years. He dropped the "R" before he ignored Term Limits and ran for (and won) the 3rd term, though.

To be fair, that’d be Paul Harvey’s response, not Mike Pence’s... but I’ll let it slide this time. ;)

He may be watching "Green Acres" for his knowledge of farming.

People who don’t know what they don’t know are dangerous.
I’m educated and experienced in my professional area. (Not that I know everything by any stretch of the imagination!).
I can’t grow a tomato to save my life, much less a field of corn, cotton, soybeans, etc.
