MoChara 1,600 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Ive not long obtained a friesan bull calf off a dairy farm up the road. I was through his whole shed area, milking parlor and dairy. Ive been on a few dairy farms as himself has been round a few for relief milking, but I can say now his herd was in fantastic condition, by far the best kept milking herd ive seen. Thing is if the dairy cows arnt in good shape they will not give as much milk in most cases, so most farmers need to keep their herd in tip top condition to keep the cows high. This man in particular makes buttons, even though his herd are high yeilders by the time he gets his milk check hes left with very little money, taking into account his machinery, feeding, calves, vet bills, work men, utility bills... god the list goes on. Maybe some farmers are in it for the money and neglect their herd but in my experience not all are. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Watch the numbers drop.... the rest will be reduced during the civil war that is in the pipeline Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I don't think they are possibly the best cattle for the small holder/backyard farmer... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,973 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Only after a mass removal of numbers could UK every be self sufficient again and it will happen at some point, question is who's numbers are removed? The native people of immigrant's there was a report on this the figure would have to be reduced to thirty million Joking aside nothing other than a horrific event is going to see over a 50% reduction in the UK's population. Did this study take into account the arable land now, or back when we actually farmed? Who gets to choose which 1 in 2 make the ultimate sacrifice? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
