It is a small barn once used for milking a small herd of cows and storing bales of hay in the winter time for them to eat. Big agribusiness has taken over and there are very few small farms left here. So these old barns are no longer used. Most of them have been torn down.

Oh, over here we use the big house fro milking and such, this smll barns would for us have been for hay and shelter :) So there isent any support for small companys??? thats really bad to hear :(

Some of the big agribusiness operations are milking over 3000 cows a day I'm pretty sure that whoever has the most money wins.

i know, we have them huge companys here to BUT goverment will give fonds to small once so they can make a living :)

I really don't know how it all works here. I know there are government subsidies, and I think the big companies get them just as often as the small farmers do. It is kind of a crazy system. I remember when we were farming we got a check from the government every month for several thousand dollars for not growing wheat. We had never grown wheat, and we had no intentions of growing wheat, and we didn't even own the equipment that would have been needed to grow wheat. But we still got that government check for not growing it!

ok, soo they give to big companys to?? hm ... kind of defeat the purpus, IMHO....
LOL omg paied to NOT plant, heay it worked so, woohoo ;il guess?

The government and how they do things never makes much sense to me!

i second that LOL i some times dig into the information but get lost after chapter 2 of endless wording with no exact point, i think thats why the goverment never gives out a short pamplet.. so we lose intrest before hand
