Um, most of the farmers that I know around here are decidedly high tech, if not quite in the league of the farmer in the above picture. GPS guided computer driven air conditioned tractors are the norm.

Be patient, well get there soon. Heck, we have genetically enhance franken-vegatables produced by corporations who think food production is their gawd given monopoly.
