I grew up with horses and cattle and it makes me sad, too.

That looks like sabotage to me. What do they use on a dairy that could cause that kind of explosion?

There can’t be anything to cause an explosion.

I worked on research farms for years and never did anybody talk about the risk of explosion.

Plenty of other risks but never explosions.

Maybe a big, Bill Gates, methane-recovery tank?

Cow fart buildup in HUGE buildings:

Propane and/or natural gas for heating/hot water/sterilization. Plus there is a whole yard full of methane producing waste.

18,000 cows out out a lot of methane. Maybe they were collecting it for sale.

[ConservativeDude]

could it be methane accumulation? I don’t know, just wondering

I guess accumulated dust explosion from grain/feed bins could do the trick. Maybe methane from some manure abatement system. Add a spark then boom.The standard FR occam's razor though says eco terrorists.

Methane build up?🤔

” What do they use on a dairy that could cause that kind of explosion?”

Natural gas or propane used for pasteurization. Just a guess.
