As someone who grew up in the countryside, I can very much confirm that the guy clearly does not know farmers, and have not been to any that aren’t over-the-top modernized and/or given weeks of notice of his arrival.
And it should be noted that the symptoms have been vaguely descibred for around three thousand years, and more accurately for four hundred years. If you combine that information with the fact that he clearly doesn’t understand how farms work, I’m going to assume that he’s fearmongering.
And the examples I listed ARE from places that had advanced notice. It’s why most auditors get pretty anal about small stuff, we know it’s 10 times worse when we’re not there.
