Actually, having lived in the prairies for the past 20 yrs, and being on the family farm in my childhood, damn near every child growing up on a farm has had the joy of the 5 am milking session. I have had friends and clients who own dairy farms and also a former boss and friend who has bin designing dairy barns and dairy operations for the past 40 yrs. I've even seen some of the most modern and efficient automated turntable operations in exhistance, the unfortunate part of the new large dairy operations is the minimal staff needed to operate and maintain, whereas even the smaller dairy operations of say 50 to 100 head cattle barns still only need about 5-6 staff members. Admitedly, I don't know everything about the dairy industry, but I know that when it comes to Canadian dairy producers, they care very much for their cattle and their products, and if your lucky enough to know any, getting fresh milk before processing was a huuuuuuge bonus, absolutly love fresh milk.
