Diary Entry about Farming

We learnt about cattle farming and Dairy farming in New Zealand from Nick Kimpton's visit. I'm happy to tear about the cows being raised very humanly and in an environment they can enjoy. I'm also glad that when the cows are killed, it is done fast and so they feel as little pain as possible. After watching Food Inc. it was great to have another view of the farming industry, and to see that not everywhere around the world is like america. Also, it was good to see that big cooperations like Monsanto are not involved in smaller countries like New Zealand. This is good because it shows that not everything feed to the cattle is genetically modified and they are still doing farming around the world naturally. I was quite surprised at the number of things that go on in farms in New Zealand to protect the environment.
