How to Talk "Cow Talk" ...What the heck it means! #farming #cow #farmlife

What happens here

As the cattle continue to move, the speaker comments on the presence of flies, noting that it is summertime. He elaborates on his decision not to administer systemic fly treatments to his cattle. His reasoning is rooted in a desire to avoid consuming chemicals in his food and extending this principle to his animals, stating he wouldn't feed it to his animals if he wouldn't eat it himself. He contrasts this approach with commercially available beef, which may be treated with such chemicals.

Goal: While observing the cattle, the speaker explains his rationale for not using systemic fly treatments on his livestock, emphasizing his preference for natural practices.

What they say

Hide

You're going to see some flies, guys. It's summer time. The cows have flies. I don't give them a systemic fly treatment because I don't want to eat that stuff in my food. I don't think you want to eat it in your food. But if you go to the grocery store and buy your beef, you're getting it in your food. I wouldn't eat it, so why would I feed it to my animals? Come on, kids.
