I am not so sure it as bad here. I can get help from other farmers if and when I need it. There is one big farmer nearby who loans me equipment and sometimes borrows some and there is no need for talk about pay.

Also I am not so sure it ever was really as easy to get along with your neighboring farmers as some seem to remember. I am in my 80's and I can remember that there was always some farmer out to show his neighbors that his farm was the best and that he was by far the better farmer.

I believe it all began to change after the big war[www 2] and when into a decline from there on and continues to this day. During that war there was a great deal of cooperation in many different occupations and the shortage of new equipment meant that sharing with your neighboring farmers was the patriotic thing to do. And because many of the workers were in the army, sharing the work was also agood friendly way to help your country.
