My father was a farmer all his life ,born in 1922 and the son of a shepherd , he fought through the second world war and hardly had a day off in his life , retired and sold the small family farm in 1992 , me and my 3 siblings had a great upbringing and i have some very cherished memories of our time on the farm an d my late parents , my mother died last year aged 85, never was a more true word said when the gentleman being interviewed said farmers just retire and die , my father died 2 years after retirement in 1994 , both sorely missed .

....a Merchant bought two Goats from a Farmer for £860. If the Merchant went to the market to sell them both and, he made a 25% loss on one and a one-third profit on the other. If the total profit on the sale of these Goats was £30; how much did he pay for each ? How much did he sell them both individually for ?

May I ask you a question? In Scotland do you take the calf’s away from the moms and place them in pens all alone? Do you sell cows milk to humans instead of allowing the baby to nurse? The common practice of the US?

We’ve farmed 1200 acres in Virginia for over 100 years. My children are 5th generation farmers. We raise crops, grow apples and raise beef cattle. We have NEVER taken calves from their moms before weaning time. Usually that’s at 8 to 9 months of age. Farming is hard. Long hours, low profits and hard to find good employees, but...it’s a rewarding way of life. At least we think so. City life isn’t for us. We care for our land, we care about the environment and we most definitely care for our animals. I admit, I get a little testy in my old age when someone makes an uninformed blanket statement about farmers and what they do or don’t do.
