Overview

Hi there, I am 18 years old currently studying in a farm management college program. I have 4 + years of experience of working on two dairy farms, I have did pretty much a little bit of everything from milking cows to feeding first born calfs to feeding heifers to making tmr mix and much more. For field work I have done discing from plowing to spreading solid manure to cutting, tending,raking, baling small square and round bales hay , picking bales and combing corn and much more . I also worked at the same time on a small beef/ transport cattle farm. I also have experience with chickens, I have my own laying hens at home which I have a little over 20 costumers that we sell to. I am looking for a dairy farmer who is looking to retired in the next 3 years and who is willing to let me take over during 5-10. I am not looking for something big so it is affordable but something where I will be able to make the farm grow in the future.
