Farming involves a lot of steps and it needs a lot of careful planning and a lot of time and effort to have a successful harvest. Modern technology might have lifted some weight off the shoulders of our dear farmers but it’s still a lot of hard work. In ancient Egypt, harvesting time was a time of intense labor for the farmers because, at that point in time, reapers were used to cut the ripe corn with wooden sickles edged with sharp flints. Women and children used to follow behind the reapers to collect any fallen years of corn. So, the whole family had to contribute to the processes involved in pre and post-harvesting.
Harvesting can take a long time. Late nights in the combine, and early quiet mornings are ideal times to laugh or have a chuckle. We’ve gathered some hilarious harvest jokes for your enjoyment.

He brings it home and places it outside their cottage to celebrate his and his wife’s success.

He and his wife continue their celebration that evening, satisfied. The next morning, however, the barrel is only a quarter full, and the farmer is furious. “Honey, you’re doing everything wrong,” his wife says. She creates a new sign that reads, “Piss barrel. Do not drink!” The farmer laughs at her cunning idea that no one in their right mind would steal from the barrel.
The farmer returns the next morning to check the contents, hoping he hasn’t lost any more wine and discovers the barrel is once again full.
