[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7797158, member: 86168"] I am perfectly happy with my laptop, while it does what l expect it to do, then it's panic mode, then the younger members tell me it's something l have done, l think it's very unfair to blame me, every time ! Unfortunately they are probably correct. I am getting used to my 'new' phone, even learnt to take pictures, [B]and[/B] post them on here. As to the future, and new inventions, l really think it's better not to know, we only end up not knowing how it works, until it's in use, and very often doesn't live up to it's claims. As to our future, things are changing in the background, and it's the 'when' which is stifling us now, but l am quite convinced farming is changing. The science that is available to us, as dairy farmers, is quite staggering, from robots to rumen monitoring, even telling you when to serve them, but they all cost. That will be fine (ish) for the big outfits, or intensive farming, through all types of ag. There are more middling type of farms, who cannot afford to invest in all that technology, or don't want to, that is where the 'problems' will occur, very difficult decisions will have to be made. Here, we are going backwards, aiming to be more self sufficient, if nothing else, there will be a big reduction in money going out ! And l hope it will make for a more enjoyable type of farming, probably more like the publics 'image' of what they think they want [/QUOTE]
