Dairy Farmers Rock
Trent Bown a Utah Dairy Farmer shares his thoughts on operating a family dairy. Awesome point view from modern milk producer.
Looks great. One question I have is that I wonder if feeding milk cows outside like that causes a drop in feed intake, and thus milk production, when you get a heavy rain. Does this happen? All the dairies I've been to in Indiana house the cows in freestall barns with a feed alley down the center of the barn.
