I highly recommend a 1 or 2 year ag tech or ag science program at a college. Or go to a trade school for something you would be interested in - heating and air, electrician or lineman, mechanic, heavy equipment operator, etc.
Just do something to get away from home for a year or two. The experience and life situations will be the main education and you will have something to fall back on.
The time to experience life is now. Go on a harvest or silage crew.
20 years from now you will look back and be glad you did something away from the farm for a year or two.
A lot can happen in 2 years. The farm and your family may really miss you and figure out a way to bring you back or open a door for you.
Also don't be afraid to get on your knees and pray about it. The Good Lord will hear your prayers.
Cows n Crops before this all went down I was kind of tossing up the idea of joining either a custom crew or a custom chopping crew just to experience life a little. I got experience in both a combine and a self propelled chopper. I really would like to get thrown in a chopper tho. Atleast around us the big chopping crew is Schaendorf custom farming and I know a couple people that work there from me and my brothers little ag drone business we got going on for fun. I shouldn't really call it a business more a hobby but we enjoy filming tractors or anything ag related. |
