Dude said a section (640 acres) could have 400 or more gates. Doing 150-250/day is possible.

I'm nervous about the guy.
When I was there in January I talked to everyone I could about work. Everyone said it's EASY to find work if you want to mess with rice, corn, and beans.

I'll start up my own farm service after a few weeks.

The thing is...everyone in Stuttgart is illiterate and lots of "no drivers license" .
Typical farm area.

These "gates" need describing better.

Imagine a tarp that has a polypipe "pocket" sewn into it. The pocket holds the water in the trench. One end is sewn shut.
The tarp edges are weighed down with dirt and on to the next little ditch.
Not every field is precision leveled. The one I took pics of for sure isn't very level.

Like this. The polypipe gets centered over the trench. Since it's closed on one end it holds water back.Image

Hence the large number of contoured checks. I've still never heard of what you're describing. Gadwall, juicebox, and I basically live in the Stuttgart of California rice country. Juice boxes back yard is a rice field for fucks sake! I think this guy is pulling your dick so to speak.

Average 3 min. per gate. How far are they apart? 5 min. walk, and you're at 7.5 gates or $/hour.

No good.

Driving is faster? In and out of the truck plus gas, and you're better off selling zj's...

Fuck, if all you want is a $10 job, get your CDL and drive a damn truck. You could base out of any damn city you want to. It's not that hard to turn $800 a week driving and then when duck season starts just walk away like you already do. Screw farming in the heat. I'd rather sit in an AC truck cab.
