  4. Do the Amish community allow the use of tractors? Or maybe I might have confused that object on the back.

  5. Veggoe girl that is the point. Every body wants a plot of land and a cow or two. But you also want goats and rabbits and chicken. You should be happy to have just a cow. In India people used to live in the city and have just a cow. But now there are no cows in the cities. They are kept outside the city area and they have to buy the milk from the stores. But if you are a veggie girl why do you need rabbits and ducks and Chicken. You really are not a veggie girl.

  6. Now I know why the cows were so confused. They were refusing to come out of the barn & just huddling together outside the barn. The cows should have been kept inside the barn until the morning milking & taken to the pasture. A farmer needs at least 200 to 300 cows to make a good living. This farmer says he has only fifty cows. He has to learn how to make loan application to borrow money to buy more cows & to convince banks to that we’ll be able to produce enough profit to pay back the loan.

  10. Eating grain that is. I just want a plot of land with 2 or 3 cows and 2 goats, some chickens and rabbits and turkeys and ducks all raised on raised on grass with enough room to graze. the pond will have tilapia in it and be covered in duckweed. Seems really nice. Perfect really.

  11. Man, what I would give to raise animals the way they do. The right way without chemicals or GRAIN, or even extra minerals. Grass! its what they were made to eat why not let them continue to eat GRASS! God people can be stupid. There was a study done thats being hushed right now that found that feeding cattle and other animals that otherwise would not be eating it is linked largly to cancer.

  17. This is actually my Amish friend’s second farm. He is highly successful by Amish standards, or by any standards for that matter. He moved to another community in southern PA that suited him better. They do use machines here, and he is probably milking close to fifty cows now.

    He is allowing my son to bring back Lovergirl, my own cow he has kept these many years, AND her daughter Lovely just coming into her prime. He has ever remained a faithful friend.

    I’m talking with his son here. 🙂

  18. Amazing the cows have names instead of a number and one
    is 14 years old.
    I guess the hand milking is better plus the glazing in the fields.
    16 cows is a small dairy.
    on another video 260 cows was considered a small dairy
    that has milking machines when compared to factory farms.
    Their is a 8000 cow dairy with robot milking machine a
    factory maga dairy farm.
