[QUOTE="M-J-G, post: 152101, member: 1819"] The right cow kept on the right farm with the correct marketing can still make money, Cows that aren't making a profit are either the wrong type of animal, the farm is no use for sucklers or value needs to be added to the calf crop. Also if you come to our area where nearly every fence has disappeared into the long grass in the margins between arable fields, and there aren't enough worms in the land to attract a gull when ploughing, you'd be glad of a few loads of dung since the soil is only good for standing crops up in! Funnily enough it's the few men who have always kept cattle who are farming well and the purely arable men are left wondering how they manage to do so well, especially in a bad year. Farms didn't used to be a mix of enterprises for fun! One feeds off the other. [/QUOTE]
