I contend that you should look at factors outside the electrical arena, because such things as bad grounds, loose connections, reversed hot/neutral(???makes no sense at all!!), should only serve to reduce voltage & prolong bulb life, not shorten it. An exception might be if the connection were so bad that the light actually went on & off, as in repeatedly switching on & off, where the 10X cold inrush current hurts the bulb life. Vibration, difference in rigidity of mount, heat caused by air flow differences, proximity of surroundings, etc. I didn't include high resistance connections to the bulb, because if it were so bad as to generate significant heat above & beyond the filament itself, the socket/wires/bulb base should be burned/charred & visible to the eye and likely flickering or dim light.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame.
