What are the salaries that can be expected from this job?

The salaries from this job can vary due to the amount of labor that you have to pay, the fuel cost, seeding, fertilizers, pesticides; all these are what can factor into what can be earned from one season. One the toatal has been calculated from the crops that have been harvested and sold.Take the the total cost of the thing that had to be used during the growing season and subtract it from the total that has been made from the crops. Here are some of the salaries that can be expected for a farmer;

  • Median hourly earnings  were $7.11 in 2000. The middle 50 percent earned between $6.34 and $8.78. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $5.87, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $11.18 (umsl.edu)
  • "The salaries can range anywhere $24,000 to $44,000 to $81,000 (Ferguson, 134).
These statistics go to show that the earning aren't high, but it is enough money to live off of. No amount of money can change somebody's feeling for what they love to do.
