I have no idea how they do. A little dairy not too far from here said they lost 35,000 out of a month's worth of a milk check, a couple months in a row. The mega dairies are mostly comprised of Belgians and Dutch, who allegedly, according to local rumor didn't have to pay taxes for the first 10 years for starting a new business here. One said he got $35 million in a government grant to get started here. There is one that got started about 15 years ago here, that now has 5 mega dairies in a 3 county area, and supposedly a 10,000 animal beef operation out west somewhere, as well as just purchasing 1,300 acres in Ohio to start another dairy. He just finished building one in the county I live in last fall. The biggest of these operations hired a successful lawyer that shut down his business to work solely for the dairy at the farm. If there is land for sale within 10 miles of any of these large operations, they buy it. They need the land to dump manure on more than anything, but they grow their corn on some of it as well. If a family wants the most money out of farmland, they have an auction where the dairies will buy it for the highest price. They all hire workers from south of the border, some legal, some not. Not hard to get replacements if they get sent back. I don't know how they make money, but they must, because they are still operating, milking, and buying every day.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
