you do not realise how much they have to deal with do you amazing amounts , i think by this time next year they will be self sufficent in electiric , got to put slurry seperator in ,which then feeds a diegester which produces methane which runs an engine which produces electric , he will spread dirty water only ,it will happen on this particullar farm it will be a good project to follow through. they do graze the cows mate but most chose to stay in :-\
