If you still think it's because of farmers, that's a myth: www.cnn.com/2019/03/08/h...
(Fuck CNN by the way but I needed a source.)
Quote from CNN article on Daylight Savings Time: "MYTH: Farmers loved it The idea that daylight saving time was created to help farmers get their harvests in is so ingrained into the national consciousness, it’s hard to believe it’s not true. But it’s not, according to Prerau, whose 2009 book “Seize the Daylight” traces the history of the time shift. Farmers, in fact, vociferously fought the proposals, arguing they cut productivity and made life overall tougher for them. 'If you want to cut off 25 per cent of the productiveness of the American farmer, just keep this law on the books,' Prerau quotes one agricultural lobby as arguing during an effort to repeal daylight saving time in 1919."
