The tendency to apotheosize farmers runs into the fact that they can be the most hard headed and duplicitous critters. They refused to listen to soil erosion authorities and gave us the dust bowl. Public health labs have to test for antibiotics because they WILL sell milk from infected cows under treatment. Some form of vigilante organization of farmers may be needed to self regulate outlaw farm practice to keep inconsistent gov interference out of the picture as much as possible
