The one thing I did that I'd recommend to anyone who wants to move into running a farm business: spend as much time as you can working for other farmers before you start. You'll have fun, learn loads, find your strengths and weaknesses, etc.

The great thing is, if you are able to juggle tech stuff and farm work, each feels a bit like time-off from the other because they're so different.

At the very least watch Jeremy Clarkson (of Top Gear fame) make a fool of himself:

Sound advice. Do you have a blog or anything?

Sorry, I don't I'm afraid. I have plenty of stories of my complete incompetence to relate, but I find it so much harder to motivate myself to write that kind of thing in the evenings than to tinker with software projects.
