Here I am going for MD, on the other one I was one of those who went for Farmer. Yes you can get your degree in Ag, but that does not make you a farmer if you ask me. When you get the dirt on you hands and under your nails now you can call yourself a farmer. I worked on farms (Potato mostly) as a kid, also some on the orchards (Apple and Cherry with a bit of Pears), my father and grand father were farmers, none of us have a degree in Ag (father and myself have degrees in other things, grand father had a 2nd grade education). My niece is going for her degree in Ag, so she can be an Ag teacher in high school. So I am not saying that there is not a lot of skill involved, but I do not see it as a white collar profession. MD on the other hand, very much so, and I am not sure which of the two I would say is the most important, but one for blue, other for white.
