>>1338838Vegetable farming and gardening is pretty chill. It can destress you quite a bit. People who garden are typically pretty chill themselves while in their gardening mindset. Animal farming can be a bit more stressful though, but usually only around butchering time or if the animals are sick. When disaster strikes crops or livestock there's usually a focal point for reprisal. Like insect pests, raccoons, coyotes, etc where the farmer/gardener can focus their rage towards instead of other people, even if it is nothing more than shaking a fist at a cloud.
