But, wait, Belinda, haven't you heard.....farmers have magical superfarmer

suits donned by spinning really fast in the corner of a

goatstall...........it allows you to have time for worm breeding and insect

farming TOO!!

(The only problem - the suit doesn't work if you have even a nano of animal

manure/chicken sheet on your boots, so for most farmers it isn't used very

often.)
