Default Hard Labor, is it worth it?

Dang! I'm give out! Been bush hogging, spraying roundup, disking, dragging, fertilizing, planting and praying on my deer food plot for this fall. Man, it's a whole lot like hard work and I just wonder if it's even worth it or is it just to make the seed companies richer or what? LOL. It's been over a 100 degrees here for three days straight and no rain for 2 months either. But,,, times will get better before the September 8th Bow Season chimes in I'm sure. Maybe down to 85 degrees. Anyway, I bought a battery powered fan for my deer box stand this year. If that don't do it, I'll put in an A/C. I love roughing it in the wild, don't you?

2 of my plots were burned out this summer. Thats even with the use of a water truck.

They started sprouting and got to about an inch in height and between the damn canadian geese and the 100 deg sunny and no rain for 99% of the summer they both didn't make it. Got 2 plots of sunflowers for dove season and one didn't make it and the other is struggleing to stay alive.

I have access to tractors, water trucks that hold 2,000 gallons of water, sprayers, bulldozers and whatever else. But don't have anything to keep the sun from burning them up or the geese from plowing them down.
