Has Jeremy ever said he "loved" farming? If he did maybe it was figuratively speaking. Like I might say I love Supervet when I what I really mean is I would love Prof Noel Fitzpatrick to shag me 
Is there any evidence Jeremy hated farming? He wasn't just a farmer he was a director at the caravan park.
Yes I think Jeremy was interested in farming from a biological perspective in terms of crops. He did biology a level with this in mind and Colin said they both liked growing things and visited Kew Gardens together.
Good grief! That's it, I can't take anymore. I'm off to mow the lawns.
And to think that just the other day, you were pulling me up on my coarse language.
I should add that I did find the rest of your post interesting.
