Kaukauna WI
We dairy farm in Wisconsin. We started on our own in 1985. It was very tough to get started. Our first year we lost 26 of out 29 of our first-calf heifers due to Johne's disease. In 1988 the drought almost put us under. But we are still here, our five kids raised. 2009 was a total disaster. We lost over $100k with our 170 cows. The biggest drawback is you never get away. Never.
