What gets destroyed in a tornado?
It depends on how strong the tornado is. A weak tornado (EF0 or EF1) will generally only destroy small trees and weakly built structures such as sheds and fences. Stronger structures will only take minor to moderate damage. A strong tornado (EF2 or EF3) will destroy most trees, vehicles, and some buildings. A violent tornado (EF4 or EF5) will destroy just about everything in its path.

Strong enough to cause damage. New estimates on the Enhanced Fujita scale place win speed estimates for an EF0 tornado at 65 to 85 mph. This can uproot trees, peel shingles, topple fences, and destroy some weak structures such as sheds. This is the weakest rating a tornado can receive.
Would a non-nuclear bomb destroy a tornado?
Most likely not, though a large enough explosion might disrupt a small, weak tornado temporarily. The structure of a tornado is enormous, extending upwards for miles. Some of the largest tornadoes can be well over a mile wide, and most very destructive tornadoes are at least a quarter of a mile wide. However, any explosive strong enough to disrupt a tornado would cause more damage that the tornado.

How much affected would a farmer get from a tornado?
It depends on the tornado. A weak tornado of EF0 or EF1 strength might knock down a fence or two, damage or destroy a barn, or blow apart a few hay bales. A stronger tornado of EF2 or EF3 strength could easily destroy a barn and badly damage or destroy a farm house. Livestock may be killed. At this point a farmer's life is in notable danger. A violent tornado of EF4 or EF5 strength can completely destroy an entire farm. In some EF5 tornadoes, farms have essentially vanished, leaving the concrete foundations of buildings as the only evidence that they ever existed. In some cases tornadoes such as this have killed entire families.
