OOC: They have same kind of chemical reactions of stress chemicals when stressed as animals do, so try again or give up your fluffy feelings point. Or be a hypocrite, but then you need to stop blaming others for that.
"suffering" by people having to spend a tiny bit more money on their food is definitely a stretch
...we're talking about farmhands. People who actually work in farming. Look up their working conditions before being a smartass.
Also, my income (permanent disability pension) is small enough that I sometimes (surprising healthcare costs, for example, or something costing more than 20 euros or so breaks and needs to be replaced) need to go without food (or at least without healthy nutritional food) near the turn of the month to be able to pay my rent and bills, and I live in a wealthy nation! I'm very aware of how well-off I am compared to the majority of people living on this planet. So "to spend a tiny bit more money on food" can mean "not eating" for a LOT of people.
I get it that you're someone living a comfy life who's never actually farmed anything even in smallscale (judging by your fanaticism, you're also young, or possibly bipolar in which case welcome to that particular boat; just a warning that it has a habit of capsizing if you're not on meds) and can afford year-round fresh veggies and so can't understand why everyone doesn't do that, but the world isn't like that. Many people even in RL where we're one species and one planet, have to think "do I eat healthily or do I eat enough?"
EDIT: Also, if you're talking OOCly, make that clearer. This is an IC forum, all OOC posting should be obviously OOC.
