What do you think has to be done on a farm?

Many people believe that there are only very few things to do on a farm
like feeding the animals (chicken...) and milking the cows.
But there is a lot more than that and not all of those jobs are really nice.
Here are examples of only some of the various jobs on a farm.

USEFUL TOOLS

Farms in New Zealand can sometimes be very big and it can take you quite some time to get somewhere on it. But you usually don't have that time. 

     

With a motorbike like this one you are much faster at going up and down the hills than by foot.

     

When you are doing some fencing, you cannot simply ram the post into the ground.
First you have to make a hole (about 70 cm in depth) into the soil. Then it is much easier to set up the posts.
