Recordist's notes
Over 8000 cows live inside the sheds here at the Tidy View Dairy farm, the largest of many industrial milk factories in Wisconsin, a state rich in protein. Windstorm rattled cages, ventilation turbines... upset the herd, startled birds... The stench of all that manure and fermenting silage is powerful enough miles away. Imagine what the cows inside these sheds have to put up with night and day. This is NOT a free range farm.
