Most farmers are part time farmers. 50% of those claiming farm income on their taxes sell less than $10k. I know farmers that farm full time and their wives have jobs. That is a great way to get heath insurance if you farm. Yes, farmers take vacations because farmers are not really only farmers. They are really people that use farming as their side hustle. They have careers that are not farming careers. Stats on this are easy to find on farm service web sites. Farmers are really school teachers and mail men and welders and all kinds of other occupations. Now, I am a farmer too, with no farm income. I own a farm. I am retired from a life of work in western Oklahoma. Some time soon I hope to have a few cows. I have 110 acres with some grass, trees, a pond, and lots of wildlife.</blockquote>
