More and more smaller dairy owners are turning away from confinement and switching to old-fashioned grazing, according to an AP story:

Bob and Karen Breneman found it difficult to accomplish all that had to be done around their southern Wisconsin dairy farm, but they didn’t want to hire more help.

So they joined the growing number of farmers in America’s Dairyland who broke with tradition by turning to grazing — saving them money and freeing up time.

Cows in a pasture. How decadent.
