i don’t think there would be much difference. There’s good and bad farmers in both countries for sure. Farm assurance keeps the majority of us fairly on it with medicine record keeping which I wouldn’t of thought would be as tight over there.
They seem to cull a lot harder than us hence maybe less foot issues whereas here lots of smaller farms maybe more reluctant to cull for lame or other minor health problems.
But then they’re aloud to castrate at 6 weeks with no anaesthetic and things like that. They bury dead stock on farm and we have to have it shipped off.
They out winter most stock cattle vs here where most house. Again arguments could be made for and against both.
But on the whole I’d of thought good farmers here and there wouldn’t be operating much differently really
