Despite this, I hung on, but I couldnt continue milking cows indefinitely. Perhaps its for the best. A few years before we sold our herd, we had to install huge fans in our barn the summers were getting too hot for the cows to be out during the heat of the day. Climate change would have made our future in farming that much harder. We could have adapted, I think, but we ran out of time. Got out just in time before the sky collapsed and fell on the cattle. /sarc

His problem is he is trying to compete with herds that number above 1,000, with sufficient pasture and land for silage.
He’s likely buying feed 8 months per year.
And selling milk 200 gallons at a time.
No chance.

SAY WHAT! Forty years ago PROGRESSIVE FARMER MAGAZINE was forewarning us of THE COMING ICE AGE and farmers had better get ready to move farming operations to the South!
About four years ago, the same PROGRESSIVE FARMER MAGAZINE was warning of glo-bull warming, and farmers had better get ready for it.
I had been taking that magazine since around 1965 and saw a good reason to cancel my subscription.

The main reason Mr. Goodman did not succeed in business is that he seems to be another deluded liberal. He claims that it was too hot for his cows to be outside in the summer, so he put fans in his barn, but the summer temperatures in Wonewoc Wisconsin where he claims to have farmed are nowhere near too hot for dairy cows.
If you can't tell what the temperature is, or think 70 degrees is too hot for your cows, you probably won't make other business decisions very well either.

Mentions cliate change but not the ever-increasing burden of federal, state, and local regulations on such an operation. If he’s real, he’s too stupid to run a business.

Cows out in the west live on hot prairies.
Is it that specialized big udder bred cows cannot take the heat?

I was wondering why WAPO would want to run a story about hardworking farmers.
