Milking Cow's in The Alps

[@ClaasAxion95]

Fantastic video! Great to see operations in Europe. More videos like this please!

[@tomrob64]

Your face watching the over head crane You generally looked like a big kid at a candy store What a nice place to work clean air but probably similar preshure running the guest-house,farm etc Wel done Gareth a good video and the team

[@mick6ful]

Super video. Lovely to see the smaller operations too, Thank you

[@Grassmen]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Modlendingen]

It's nice to see a small farm too, looks lovely :) And farmers understand eachother anyway :)

[@jamescarson4745]

Absolutely brilliant Gareth, such a lovely place

[@casto-]

I’d happily take a mountain top farm in Austria. I remember the local farmer coming to the field behind my (Austrian) grandparents on an old steyr 2 cylinder to collect the hay.

[@masterfarms]

Cracking video fascinating to see how they farm. This is proper mixed farming piste basher by night cows by day !

[@GamingHuman-si9fo]

Well as you sayd some guys would like to go overseas and farm big, but it would also be nice to get bigger here in the swiss alps, but the problem is we as mid siced farmers (16 Swiss fleckvieh milk cows/20 hectares) can not grow bigger, because farmland is rare, or you'd have to go non reasonable distaces for it. Also celing mounted hay cranes are very comon in the alps, because you get a way better quality hay when you bring it in lose and dry it a bit. We also have some harvestore like silos we also fill wit that crane.

Isn't it a sight that if anyone built a milking parlour like that here in Ireland they'd be laughed at, brilliant parlour in a small space

[@hughmarcus1]

Big difference is what they get paid for their milk.

[@vnthomas16]

I love that parlor! I milk in a similar (mine’s two-stalls) side-opener parlor for my small herd of Jerseys. I’m in the Rocky Mountains of NE Washington State USA. We turn a lot of our milk into cheese here on the farm.

[@hughmarcus1]

@@vnthomas16 Brilliant. Jerseys are lovely cattle. Best wishes with your farm venture. 👍

[@jaykettlewell3922]

Beautiful scenery.

[@68diggerman]

What. A great video nice simple set up what a way to live the carpentry look next to non the scenery beautiful

[@neillcraig9182]

what a place 👌 guys in the alps with round bales and us in the fens where it flat as a pancake running big squares 🤣

[@Grassmen]

Lol now you mention it 🤣

[@henrytomlinson3634]

Grate video thanks for sharing. All the best from Henry in the UK 🇬🇧

[@Grassmen]

Thanks for watching!

[@Johnryan78045]

That crane grab on the roof is insane, never seen anything like that before, wasn’t expecting that

[@7pdude]

you should visit Berghof Babel in Wald, Germany. besides their dairy they run their own hotel and restaurant, cheesery, brewery and lots more. they use quite interesting methods and machinery to get the best milk possible.

[@williamwimer2074]

Nice video and view is awesome

[@conjoe176]

That would be my heaven, a herd of 30 or so red cows in those mountains and making a living, whatever you'd make it's plenty if you got to live there. The buildings, the animals, the view...amazing life👌 I'm jealous😅

[@Grassmen]

You and me both!

[@hughmarcus1]

Reality is, the farmer, the animal & the land are under much less pressure. It used to be like that in Ireland. I spent my teens in the 1970s milking 20 British Friesians in a byre. My dad milked in the morning & went off to work & I did the evening milking after I came home from school. A very different world to now. 😬

[@anthony.789]

Super setup 👍

[@duncancox4905]

What a cracking video mate 👌🏻

[@jeremygalbraith5056]

Great video big man ..👍😉

[@Paddy6.30]

Would love to go over to the alps for the farming

[@350mack]

Very beautiful 😊

[@Martin_Priesthood]

Beautiful 👍👌

[@SimonKL11]

Very nice farm😁👍

[@nigelrowney7003]

Well done Garth another excellent video 👍👍

[@CJR410]

San Candino? Lovely spot ❤

[@stephenkelly2067]

Big move towards regenerative farming when mature grass are also high in sugars and me

[@MarkH6399]

Check out Marsden Farming on KZbin he’s big on Regen farming in Lancashire and his herd beef cows

[@desktopdiddies5530]

Which was cooler to see, the panoramic views or the ceiling mounted crane

[@Grassmen]

The crane I think but sush. 😆

[@bekabeka71]

Life is more quieter and peaceful over there, to me it seems like farmers are always rushing to get things done in Ireland and uk. The attitude is like they’re always under pressure. Where as any other country, farmers are connected more, slower and relaxing life, and better climate

[@the_irish_model_farmer_150]

Wouldn’t be going up there myself 😂😂

[@SamDeansMedia]

Why is the volume SO LOW on this video?

[@kiwifarmer_003]

The opening scene of a cow shitting, summed up dairy farming!

[@Grassmen]

😆 🤣 😂

[@shafiqueraja5801]

❤❤ beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@patricksheridan7899]

if you do what you love,money does not matter. Everybodies down fall is they follow the dollar, world wide.

[@tjwiersma4406]

I don’t want to ask a dumb question, but do they have a problem with the bales rolling down the mountains? Also, with round bales the cows don’t get a square meal.😂😂 Sorry, that’s an old dairy kid joke.

[@lol-vz8kd]

I see a lot of farms like this on Pinterest and Instagram.

[@rbfishcs123]

Looks like Erlengat from FS22/19

[@nickthomas8400]

well its sustainable farming with the wider considerations of a stable interactive economy and community needs - uk its all about subsidies which do not take into account wider economic needs of the rural economy - agri leaders dont seem able to take a view outside of agri and its immidiate supply chain - conservation of landscape eco systems paymnets linked to national and sub regional rural economic regeneration of the rural areas is a holistic payment approach outside of direct subsidies to agri create greater rural oportunity and resilience - same old way of cheques to produce does not meet the electorate and taxpayers requirements
