Why Corn And Soy Are In EVERYTHING

It turns out a lot of farms grow corn and soy, because they are a lot less labor intensive to grow. Farmers, especially those who do it part time as a hobby or side income to sustain their family can have other off-farm jobs, milk cows, and do other things unlike many fruit and vegetable crops which require much more management. This is a very interesting video, something that runs contrary to corporate evil-doer mantra that dominates public discussion of the issues these days.

Milking Cows in Brand New Parlour!

Big dairy farms, with state-of-the-art milking parlors, robots and other technologies are kind of neat, but when it comes down it, dairy farming is pretty much dairy farming, it's still cows, it's still cleaning and hooking milking machines up their teats, feeding them, hauling manure, cleaning bedding pack, etc. I am actually a bit surprised which such a big operation they don't use more milking robots.
