Yes, a farmer should ordinarily rest from his labor on the Lord's Day by the Fourth Commandment too.

But they can't. Again works of necessity are permitted. Have you ever seen what happens to a dairy cow if you don't milk them? I have, it is pretty gross. You have to feed any animals you have daily again it is necessary. Depending on the type of crop you are growing then watering could also be necessary on a daily basis.
Working a regular job is no different if you are living within a tight budget. If I don't work then my choices are skip buying groceries for my family or pick a utility bill not to pay. Feeding my family is necessary. So is paying my utility bills.
