Скачать или смотреть Why is the Dairy Industry Struggling? - Farmers Explain - | MD F&H

Agriculture is a volatile business. Profits each year are dependent on factors outside a farmer’s control, such as market prices and weather. Even among farmers, milking cows is recognized as one of the most difficult ways to make a living, and consistently low prices have pushed some Maryland farmers to sell their herds. This segment focuses on two dairy farm families: the Haines family of Locust-Ayr Farm in Taneytown (Carroll County) and the Grossnickle family of Ellerton View Farm in Myersville (Frederick County). They explain why the dairy farming lifestyle is a challenging one and how it is so ingrained in their DNA they can’t imagine doing anything else.
