Pirate 9000 675 Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Greed has got the better of most farmers, where there father's would have been happy with 200 cows they want a thousand and milk them 3 times aday, keeping them in 12 months of the year covering the fields in-between silage cuts with thousands of gallons of slurry and then feeding the cows the grass and can't understand why they keep getting out breaks of TB most aren't fit to keep livestock. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
