I'm running out of clever titles

Hey guys!

Today was a pretty average day for me so this is going to be pretty short.

I didn't get to AI a cow today(boo), but I got to use my dairy protocol assessment again so now I have more data. I might assess the dairy protocol one more time. Some of the numbers were astounding. One cow was milked for 13 minutes straight! Now that we have this information we can easily monitor our time better and improve upon our system.


I had to give a group presentation for my Spanish class with another student named Newton about nomadic pastoralism. It was a little frightening! I had to explain everything in Spanish. Luckily I understand the basic words that are needed to explain the system. It wasn’t great but it was something! We all sat around in a group and talked about different systems of farming like industrial farming, integrated farming, etc. It was interesting!

Integrated farming is really stressed here at EARTH. Learn more about this system of farming here!

Thanks for reading you guys!
