I'm a dairy farmer. Ask me a question

is it true milking the utter is like jacking a cow off?

where you located?

Do you like milking those milkers???

Or pumping rather, think of a mom getting her breasts pumped.

Ever drink raw milk, is it good, does it taste better than galloned milk?

Are your dairy cows grass fed?
If so, does grass fed dairy taste differently than commercial grain fed?

Crop outlook? What's ya soil like?

I'm located in Michigan. I guess it's like jacking off a cow if you do it by hand. Most farms use vacuum milkers now. I'm guessing only the really small farms or amish farms still do it by hand though.

Aren't vegetarians the most vile people on the earth? I mean, they have no problem molesting cows and eating and drinking that sh*t!

Raw milk is delicious. Ironically I'm not a milk fan, but I do enjoy the occasional glass straight from the cow. We have a massive super cooler that turns it from body temperature to 38 degrees in seconds. It's much better than from the store.

How much longer before the Milk Board comes in and shuts you down you CRIMINAL!?

Our cows are not grass fed, but they do have a very specific diet to maximize milk production. It's a hay/corn silage diet with soybean, corn gluten, some grass, and various minerals. We milk over 700 cows and have about 1500 cows total on our farm. Way too many cows to roam in a pasture and eat a strictly grass based diet.

I have no idea what you're talking about. What is this Milk Board you are referring to?

Do you use RBST?

Yeah, I have a fucking question. You are a dairy man, but you might still have the answer. Where the fuck are all the meat cows?? MOOOO.....

I mean we must eat about the equivalent of a million cows a day in the US. Where are these mother fuckers located? I have traveled far and wide on the US roadways. I see dairy farms, but not many eaters. Yeah, I know, Texas, Nebraska, blah, blah, blah. Are we eating horse or Chinese cattle?

It's winter so we obviously don't have any crops in the ground right now besides our alfalfa, but last year was really, REALLY bad. A lot of the smaller farms unfortunately went under, especially if they couldn't afford crop insurance.

We've been getting a lot of precipitation this winter in my location of Michigan, and our drought level is back to normal. I hear in the central plains they are in big trouble. From all the meetings I've been at this winter it's looking like corn prices will go up, which means food prices will be on the rise. It's a legitimate concern.

We did use BST many years ago, but we stopped using it about 6 or 7 years ago. I'm not sure if it's technically banned in Michigan or not, but we stopped using it and so did all the farmers I know of around here.

...It's the other red meat... horse, donkey, mule, etc.

There's a couple larger beef farms around me, but I'm assuming most are in the south.

Do your milkshakes bring all the boys to your yard?

I'm not going to take the 15 minutes to watch that, but if you want to summarize it for me I'll give you my opinion on the matter.

We produce about 57,000 pounds of milk per day, which is roughly 6627 gallons of milk every day.

It's not molesting if they have to get the milk out, you sound like a bit of a freak yourself.

Thanks for that, but I was hoping for a bit more. Ah, I'll go google "where's the beef"

Thanks for the answer. That's some serious farmin'

If got a second cow, you could make twice that much!

What do you feed the cows?

Do you know of Joel Salatin?
I'd like to hear what you think about a farmer like him, from your perspective.
