  • COWS-SELL MILK & BEEF: Raising a family milk cow can be tasking but remember that the initial stages of most livestock homestead are always very expensive and stressful.Milking the cow twice a day can be very stressful but when you start getting enough milk for sale your efforts will be rewarded, there are lots of buyers in search for raw milk and you can supply for them.Beef is usually consumed by most individuals and so you can consider selling beefs when you have enough cows,your entire household would no longer need to buy beef as they can just take part when any is killed.
