When I was young, I wasn't fortunate enough to use a tractor, we walked the rows with gloves on pulling the tassles off the corn... (yuck) It is hot, sticky work that usually produces a rash from brushing against the stalks all day long (even when fully covered). You start out wet and cold in the morning and finish hot and sticky in the evening. The mud is the worst part of the job...

I worked for Dekalb, and they wouldn't let us use gloves. Had to be done bare handed. It WAS miserable work, but pretty good pay at that time for a teenager.
