January 6th: Now its clear why the GOP didn't want to investigate

 Every other day more revelations on the action of the President and of the United States become more incredible.  One thing, so far there is no direct evidence implicating Trump, but he's really close and behind a lot of the events, to say that "Mike Pence deserves it" when the demonstrators were chanting "Hang Pence" tells you only the Trump is at best a Sociopath and at worse a psychopath.

One thing for certain is that between November 4th and January 20th the American Republic came close to ending, and its almost certain that the GOP, when they retake power, after the mid term elections will do almost anything to hide their activities, especially the likes of Jordan and certain other.  Now what emerged is that several members of Congress had visitors prior to the events of the 6th of January and they were actively taking pictures...which is illegal in the Capitol.

Now all this could be nothing but so far it seems that there was a high level of preparedness and that members of congress seem to have at least facilitated and at worse aided the demonstrators/rioters.

Again for us Canadians, it's like watching an amazing reality show.  Still, it's worrying that our Southern neighbor seems to be going so crazy.  Sometimes I wish that Trump had built a wall, but between Canada and the USA.  

On thought, the GOP lies all the time, they have no fear and no issues with destroying the republic if they can get their religious what on top country back, whatever the consequences.

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b) ground beef requires process

21st century milk parlour

When we first looked at building our farm in 2018, we made a few money-saving decisions, the most important is that we purchased our milk herd from a retiring farmer and we also purchased his milking parlour equipment.  It was the right decision at the time.  The equipment dates from around 2004/05 and was perfectly serviceable, our installers replaced some tubing but otherwise, the milking parlour was in good shape.  It is a mature technology. Now, we are building a brand new milk parlour because our milking cows are moving from the old farm to the new farm.  So we are looking at brand new equipment this time because, after 20 years of daily service, the old cattle parlour's systems need to be replaced.  Fear not it will not be destroyed instead good chunks will end up on Facebook's marketplace and be sold to other farmers for spare parts or expansion of their current systems. All our cattle are chipped, nothing unusual there, we have sensors throughout the farm, and our milki

So we sold surplus electricity one time last summer...(Update)

I guess that we will be buying an additional tank for our methane after all.   Over the past few months, we've had several electricity utilities/distributors which operate in our region come to the farm to "inspect our power plant facilities, to ensure they conform to their requirements".  This is entirely my fault.  Last summer we were accumulating too much methane for our tankage capacity, and so instead of selling the excess gas, that would have cost us some money, we (and I mean me) decided to produce excess electricity and sell it to the grid.  Because of all the rules and regulations, we had to specify our overall capacity and timing for the sale of electricity (our capacity is almost 200 Kw) which is a lot but more importantly, it's available 24/7, because it's gas powered.  It should be noted that the two generators are large because we burn methane and smaller generators are difficult to adapt to burn unconventional gas, plus they are advanced and can &qu
