Some statistics you can make of what you will. The divorce rates for various occupations. [Note: this is an Excel file, worth scanning all the way through - about 500 job categories]
OK, here the ten jobs with the highest relative divorce rates: massage therapists, bartenders, dancers and choreographers, health diagnosing and treating practitioners (all other), physicians and surgeons, gaming services workers, mathematicians, fish and game wardens, pile-driver operators, and first-line supervisor of gaming workers.In general, ag-related folks rank very low, also most engineers.
Here are the ten jobs with the lowest relative divorce rates: religious workers (all other), audiologists, first-line enlisted military supervisors/managers, shuttle car operators, optometrists, clergy, transit and railroad police, religious activities and education directors, agricultural engineers, and media and communication equipment workers (all other).

Jan points out the divorce rate is not so surprising for engineer/farmers as the fact we are able to get married at all.

Hmmm, Jan's comment is pretty much right on. I guess I had a lot more energy when I was young because I had time to farm, go to college, and still court and get married. But I still wonder just how I managed that.
As a friend might say, "that's cold".
Thank goodness that I am an ag engineer that returned to the farm!
