Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Cow manure may not look like it has any value, but to a farmer, it's liquid gold.
To protect the environment, the liquid manure produced by our
 dairy cows is collected in a cement pit at the dairy barn. 

Our  permit from the Arkansas Department of
Environmental Quality  allows us  to store it in this pit 
and haul it to fields for fertilization.

                           
                                             I'm thankful for this recycled liquid gold that
                                                         is used to sustain our dairy farm.
