What is Farming all about and what can they do to help prepare for the nature.

In the little town of Fowlerville, there is a different types of crops grown here. South of our town we have a strawberry and a vegetable farm. Going north we have the more traditional crops such as corn and beans. this last yer we had a ton of rain during planting season. When rain comes mud follows, thus causing farmers not to be able to plant crops due to bad soil and stuck tractors. Some ways farmers can help improve there knowledge on what they can do when stuff happens through simulations. In this day and age computer technology has come a long way. Now we can predict what would happen if such and such happen.

How much do simulators cost?

There is many different types of simulators that yolu can have. there is racing sims, airplanes sims,boat sims, and llots more. When you are looking to build your own simulator you need to watch your budget, with simulators they can get very expensive very fast. but if you are just looking for a stering wheel or heavy machinery controls. They can run anywhere from $150 to $450, and thats for steering wheels and mabye peddles. If you want to really go all out and build a full cockpit, you can get all the way up $40,000 or higher. Even though simulators are nice to have, they are not cheap.

Why do simulators exist

Some people say that you don't need a simulator, why not just go and do the real thing. Simulators can help people learn how things work on a virtual level instead of the real thing. if you break something in on a tractor or plane in a simulator you can just reset and it would be fixed. But in real life you break something then you have to manually fix it and that can costs thousands of dollars. I believe that farmers can improve their knowledge of farming through simulations.
