There's a lot about Leo Sanchez and his farm in Salinas, California. That seems unusual.

关于里奥·桑切斯以及他在加利福尼亚州萨利纳斯的农场有很多故事,这似乎不太寻常。

The national average farm size is around 440 acres, but his is only one acre.

在全国,一般农场的面积在440英亩左右,然而他的农场只有1英亩。

The average age of farmers hovers around 58 years old, but he is just 26.

农民的平均年龄在58岁左右,然而他只有26岁。

And Sanchez constantly attempts to improve everything from seeding techniques out in the field to the promotion and sale of his produce online.

从田间播种技术到网上推销产品,桑切斯一直在试图改善这一切。

This is evidence of an experimental approach.

这是一种实验方法的证明,

It's an approach not dictated by the confines of conventional large scale agriculture lead by international corporations.

While farming is often difficult for both the body and mind,

桑切斯说,虽然耕作经常会对身心造成负担,

Sanchez says he and many of his fellow young farmers are motivated by desire to set a new standard for agriculture.

但是他和他的许多年轻农民同伴们都渴望能够建立一套新的农业标准。

Many of them are employing a multitude of technologies, some new and some not so new.

他们中很多人在使用大量的技术,有些是新技术,有些是不那么新的技术。

Recently, Sanchez bought a hand operated tool which pulls out weeds and loosen soil.

最近,桑切斯买了一个既可以除草又可以松土的手动工具,

It actually dates back to at least 1701.

实际上,这种工具至少可以追溯到1701年。

It stands in sharp contrast to Sanchez's other gadget, a gas powered flame rekiller, invented in 1997.

它和桑切斯使用的另外一种工具形成了鲜明的对比,即1997年发明的一种以气体为动力的灭火器。

He simply doesn't discriminate when it comes to the newness of tools. If it works, it works.

他不会因工具的新旧而对其区别对待,一切以其实用性为主。

Farmers have a long history of invention and is no different today.

农民们有着悠久的发明史,至今仍是如此。

Young farmers are guided by their love for agriculture and aided by their knowledge of technology to find inexpensive and appropriately sized tools.
