Relax. This commenter is speaking in generalities and it's like you're interpreting it as a personal attack.

They simply said that there exist a category of farmers who do not participate in the normal schooling system and choose brands based only on status. This phenomena exists for nearly all brands. You can't possibly be disputing that these people exist?

Keep away from ad hominem attacks, they only serve to dilute your argument.



His categories are false. You think all the farmers that don't have an education are the same ones that choose the brand based on status?

No, education is generational. Most younger farmers have gone to a good ag science school like A&M. Most older farmers don't have an education but have tons of experience and use techniques passed down that are essentially the same as what is taught in schools.

Whether you brand whore or not is not based on your education status, which is what OP suggested.
