Strengthening Barriers and Tackling Limiting Beliefs | 5min snip from EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™

Speaker 3
Well, we like the idea of, you know, offering this expanded service to the community and diversifying and, you know, I love my cows and I love what I do. And doing more of it is, you know, in agriculture, economies of scale is a very
Speaker 1
real thing. And yeah, I mean, don't you kind of reach a tipping point though that you've got to go like, you know, 200 is not double what 100 is. You got to go all the way to 1000 to really get head of cattle to really get in a dairy to really get some movement, don't you?
Speaker 3
Oh, yeah, there's definitely there's definitely inflection points.
Speaker 1
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Once you cross the line, like robotics and all of that,
Speaker 3
right? Exactly. And there's one problem where, you know, I'm only 33, but I've been around enough to see other operations, not just in dairy, but, you know, other other farming enterprises. Yeah. Where they try and do a whole suite of a whole bunch of different things. And they end up falling flat on their face. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1
You don't need to get in the jelly and the honey business, you're in the milk business,
Speaker 3
you know, right? Yeah.
Speaker 1
Unless you're distributing someone else's. I mean, but yeah, it's a whole different manufacturing operation. The whole thing I've seen. I've watched that happen too. I know what you're talking about. Well, the whole farm to table movement and certainly Vermont, you guys have a vibe for all of this and the whole boutique farming operation that I've been describing and that you're doing as well makes sense. I don't know much about it other than I think I've just told you everything in the last 10 minutes. I know about it. So I'm pretty ignorant about it. But the other thing I am sure of, you know, just observing is that those cows don't take a vacation and farming is hard work and dairy farming is particularly hard work. Every morning, every night, doesn't care if it's Christmas, doesn't care if your wife wants to go to the Bahamas, doesn't matter. Those cows got to be milked and it's a thing. And more of that sounds like more hard work. And I kind of hear in your voice, you would rather diversify the exposures like with the tour agrituro or whatever you call tourist agritourist or whatever you call that stuff. But just giving people access to this and seeing it and paying and doing the bed and breakfast or doing whatever and let them participate in the milking. I don't know whatever it is but that you do there but your version of a dude ranch or whatever. But all of that stuff sounds like you just listening to your voice when you're talking about it sounds like I don't want 200 head versus 100 head. That sounds like a lot double the work or triple the work. I think I'd rather go the other way. I think I hear diversification in your voice. Am I missing something?
