[0.90.10] Cactus farms condition degrades way too fast

Wasn't sure if this fell under gameplay balance or bug.. but decided to put it here anyway.

But it seems impossible for my experienced farmers(90+) to maintain and harvest a full cactus farm before the plant condition drops down to 0% with over 40 plants left to harvest.

And on the subject of farmers, they seems to have issues with remembering how to add water to farms when they run out and instead choose to wack it with a hoe in the hopes of that working.

Edit: just noticed the same happen with my Cotton farm. Experienced farmer can't harvest fast enough to get anything out of it(even worse so when you have a 10% yield) before more than half of the plants die due to degration within a few hours.

with the cotton farms you need to add more people to get them to empty fast enough, they have room for 4 but they usually need 3. haven't tried a cactus farm yet but its probably the same way.

Greenfruit goes down really fast too.

I don't understand the purpose of the degradation either. If they are rooted in the ground and watered, how does an entire crop die out in an hour or two, but you can stick them in a barrel forever?
