I once had a passenger who'd been tapped to work in her bank's "wealth management" department (>$10 million portfolio, iirc). One of her clients was the "sweetest" old lady. Farms were part of the portfolio - they'd analyze the productivity of the various properties, and decide to keep or to sell.

I said to myself, "that is NOT farming."
