I'd go with the Ayrshire-Holstein cross. We milked 80 of them at one time. They'd give almost as much milk as a Holstein, but with the Ayrshire in them they'd do it on poorer feed if they had to. They'd make the best grazers too.
One thing would be to understand that NZ did more than eliminate ag subsidies, they eliminated a great many things across their society. Just eliminating ag subs wouldn't have worked.
For example, the school budgets were cut to the point where in many cases they no longer had janitors, the...
We had the "Unisex Bandit" get caught on the tail end of a province wide bank-robbing spree here a few years back. "fella" who was robbing banks to save up enough money to finish it's sex change, the top half had already been done and apparently looked like a well-endowed female, he hadn't saved...

I listen to Johnny Reid a fair bit, mostly because I played football with him in university. His singing voice sounds almost nothing like him.
Fair bit of Metallica, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tea Party.
Friend of mine was an ambulance attendant back in the days when Bobby was playing, remembers it being a monthly occurrence in the off season that somebody would call them and the police out to Point Anne to Bobby's house. Bobby would be drunk on the front step having a laugh with the cops about...
From what I understand they're collecting antibodies from horses infected with E.Coli then refining them to produce the vaccine for cattle. The horses are just up the road here, run around on pasture all the time and every X days get taken into a lab on the farm and have some blood drawn or...
