[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1499507, member: 1682"] The big difference is unless you started in the late 70's, when the quota system started, you could never afford to get into dairy here. The biggest mistake ever made was putting a dollar value to the quota itself. When it started, when we started milking, it had zero value. When we quit, it was worth thousands. Now it's worth tens of thousands which quickly becomes millions for many operations. A 50 cow dairy in this country will cost you a million just in quota. [/QUOTE]
