  • @bloqk16

    This is the first video, from the _10th Generation Dairyman_ to show up on the list of _recommended videos_ on my screen.
    I became first acquainted with the dairy industry in college, as a dorm student across the hall from me had a family dairy in the San Joaquin Valley region of California. I recall many-a-times he would bring in bottles of _raw milk_ from his weekend visits to his parents' dairy operation. I never had the courage to sample it.
    I've always been impressed with the dedication it takes to operate a dairy business, in that there is rarely, or never, any *downtime* with the daily regiment of work; the cows have to be fed, watered, and milked on a daily basis. It's not like caring for horses where a person can auto-fill the water trough and pile-on the feed that the equine can survive on for a couple of days on their own.
    My nephew married a woman whose family ran a dairy farm in the US Midwest; where she distanced herself as much as she could from her family with their dairy business. Whenever I asked about some details of the dairy operation I was curious about, she'd steer clear of the subject and talk about something else. She even went as far as to proclaim she would never return to that rural area of her parents' dairy business; and would do anything she could to stay away.
    So, she married into my sister's family and, figuratively speaking, *milked* from the wealth of that family to pay for her medical nursing school education. After graduating from nursing school and had employment offers, she divorced my nephew.

    I sure would of liked to have equipment like that back in the 70’s. Dairy farming is a lot different now than it was back then. We milked 2 cows on each side back then. It took one person about 4 hours to milk our cows in the morning and in the evening. So it took us 8 hours a day to milk our cows. Then there’s all the other jobs that had to be done. Feeding, cleaning up, taking care of the calves, planting and harvesting the crops, repairing breakdowns, and all the jobs in between. That made for very long days. We even had one cow that had to be milked 3 times a day. I enjoy watching dairy farm videos.

    Nice Erik. Interesting the options you have on trackwidth for the rear wheels of the new Johnny boy. Also great to see which effort you put in to get clean and good feed, and silage and how the bedding works. Looks good. The math is good as well, even more so considering you start that early in the morning, can imagine sometimes the head is still sleeping isn't it? Long days, but appreciated to gain this great insight from your farm, yard and family!
