Machine harvesting corn to save time and effort, why some farmers are still willing to hand break corn friends?

In our rural areas, the main is mainly agricultural, home will also have many acres of land used to grow crops, land is the basis of our rural people rely on the survival, only when the harvest is the farmers happy time, every time to the autumn harvest, we can see the farmers in the ground labor scene, take the collection of maize, right. In the past, they used to break the corn by hand, and slowly with the machine, people take the machine to collect the corn. But there are still a lot of people who don't like to use machines and like to break corn by hand. There are mainly these reasons.

One: the machine to collect corn will destroy the straw.

Generally, if you break corn by hand, you will get the straw down inside the ground first, and then break the corn, which will not destroy the straw. The stalks can also be reused to make fertile soil in the land. But if the machine collects the corn, it is very easy to destroy the stalks, farmers do not want to destroy the stalks, unless the family has many acres of land, will choose the machine to collect the corn, otherwise, they still like to manually break the corn.

Two: the machine collection is not clean.

I have also seen the machine to collect corn, to be honest, the manual collection of corn, more detailed, even some of the small corn can not be lost, and the corn can be peeled clean. But if the machine collects it, it is easy to have missed, or the corn skin is not clean, and finally need to manually come back again, to not peel the clean corn skin again, is also very time-consuming, it is better to just manually break the corn.

Three: emotional commitment.

In fact, the seed corn is also need to invest a lot of energy, when you sow the seeds, watching the corn slowly grow, and then wait until the corn is ripe, one by one break down, that kind of pride from the inside out, only they can understand. If you use a machine to harvest the corn, that feeling of joy cannot be experienced.

No matter what, technology has been developing, whether it is hand breaking corn or machine corn, as long as the farmers are able to harvest is very happy.
