No one works harder than farmers and ranchers. Up before dawn and work until dark. My occasional 50-60 hour weeks with a deadline approaching are easy compared a normal week for my rancher grandparents. To say nothing of lambing or calving or harvest seasons.
Forty hour work weeks are relatively new too.

But I always get pushback saying that farm work is not valuable because it is unskilled and can be done by anyone. Yet, we have a shortage of farmers.
