And 18,000 cattle is quite a lot to keep in a totally enclosed environment. Maybe something to do with how the slurry was (mis)handled?

Vince Green Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Unless you have been there and seen the sheer size of the place its hard to appreciate the scale of the farming over there. Same on the prairies with the wheat fields. You can drive all day and its just one continuous field of wheat on both sides of the road as far as the eye can see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
