Synopsis

Understand daily farm work more clearly with practical averages and data-driven benchmarks.

This concise guide explains how farmers and researchers estimate a typical day’s work for many operations. It shows how researchers use farmer reports, adjust for bias, and build complete standards for field tasks, harvesting, manure handling, planting, and more. The book emphasizes practical reference values that help plan labor, equipment use, and scheduling across regions.

  • How daily work factors are constructed from regional farmer reports
  • How adjustments and assumptions shape usable averages for operations with different equipment
  • Examples of tables that relate distance to market, loads per day, and time in the field
Ideal for readers of farm management, agricultural history, and anyone needing a grounded view of work norms in American agriculture.
