I'm a farmer, raising ornamental foliage, shrubbery, and palm trees, for sale to real estate developers, interior decorators, and others.
The current market niche is in hard-to-kill office plants, which means I grow plants that even an idiot can grow if you can remember to water and feed regularly.
Luckily for me there is ample rainfall here, and time-release fertilizers are my choice of nutrients for the plants, so propagation is as easy as making cuttings and sticking them into cinder-soil. They root up in a couple of weeks and are ready to ship in a few months.
Since the plants are not food crops I can use pest control measures which are not approved for use on food crops, and thereby am able to pass inspection for export.
It started out as a hobby, and grew to what it is today, but I still don't work very hard, and many days I don't work at all.
