Ergonomics of Farm Production
- One person with a 200 hp tractor - 4-10 acres per hour in general for any farming operation - [1]
- For a 200 person Dunbar Village, this means 20-50 hours per operation. One week. Prep, till, plant, weed, harvest. 5-6 weeks per year, assuming the tractors are in shape, etc. That means a 10% employment rate for the town farmer, and less with automation pending workign equipment.
