25 cows and making good profit... 40 years ago!!!

[Tim G]

Currently milking two cows and number three being collected tomorrow (also have one due to calve end of Sept and two more dry but due early next year). Have no intention of getting to twenty five but can see it could make a living if done in the right location.

Should add that we are not selling on contract at 30 whatever pence.

I know this means nothing now but it is true 25 cows and good profit, always Hereford bull AI calves sold at 2 weeks black calves sold better than red and made better price at Shrewsbury than Welshpool well worth the longer journey and always used BOCM red label nuts , finally all the cleaning out was done with shovel , broom and wheelbarrow

Donegal farm relief but I'm in co. Monaghan

So you are going to treble production in less than a year, flooding the market and bringing the price down for the rest of us!!!!
