Are you getting your knowledge from stereotypes? I know farmers from my time in a rural midwestern high school and I keep in touch with some. They plan extensively and know more about accounting than I do. Some have agricultural or business degrees too. People generally prefer to make more money for their effort and will take steps in the direction. Sure there are the backward, resistant type of farmers too. But they're not the majority because such farms are much more prone to failure. It doesn't matter if the stereotype is that farmers are all backwards, they adapt to economic pressures regardless.
