A farmer is responsible for producing food and other products by growing crops, raising animals, or both. Farmers in the UK may work on arable farms (producing crops such as wheat, barley, and vegetables), livestock farms (raising cattle, sheep, pigs, or poultry), or mixed farms that combine both. Daily tasks include planting, harvesting, feeding and caring for animals, maintaining equipment, and managing farm business operations. Farmers also need to keep up with regulations, sustainable practices, and market trends to ensure their farms are productive and environmentally friendly. It is a physically demanding job, often requiring long hours, particularly during planting and harvest seasons.
