Additional duties include routine field operations directly related to crop production, such as moving equipment, supporting harvest logistics, and performing tasks necessary to complete agricultural operations within limited time frames dependent on weather and crop conditions. Work is performed outdoors and is physically demanding, requiring prolonged standing, walking, lifting, bending, and working in variable weather conditions. All work is agricultural in nature and conducted at the employer’s place of employment listed in the job order. The duties described are routine and necessary to the grain farming operation and must be completed during the seasonal period of need from mid-July through early December to ensure timely harvest and completion of farm operations. Employees will be provided with adequate breaks, including meal and rest periods, consistent with applicable Federal, State, and local law, during the course of each workday.
