A tractor could cost £150k. A new combine could be easily £600k. A farmer doesn't buy such machinery and then leave it lying around, and its driver doing nothing for most of the time. That would tie up and waste capital which could be better used elsewhere. He would not make a profit, and he'd get undercut by more intelligent farmers. You'd have thought an economist would understand this sort of economic mechanism. Sure back in the old days a simple tractor would have been cheap and there wasn't much competition. Food prices were then much higher as a result due to lower productivity.

There is no reason why a tractor driver who is hired by the hour can't be as skilled as a tractor driver who has been working for the same employer for several years. If one long-term tractor driver is replaced eventually by another, then unless there is a meeting between the two, the part of the field where the goldfinches nest will be unknown to the new tractor driver. The responsibility for that sort of information getting passed on is with the land owner. But this is not the sort of thing happening right now in Britain. More likely is that the tractor will be sold, the driver sacked, and immigrants (some illegal) used to do the work by hand, thus lowering productivity, damaging growth, and causing the GDP/head of Britain to collapse, thus causing public services to collapse and causing a housing crisis. This is happening because the LibLabCon uniparty establishment want to destroy Britain as quickly as possible [edit] by means of mass uncontrolled immigration. This is their goal because like Riccardo here, they have the woke mind virus and they believe in a no-borders world with no nation states.
