Geoff:
Yes, it does seem that cattle raising entails some bizarre problems.
Back when I worked for the Tennessee Valley Authority we held
hearings on a proposed 500 KV transmission line, one end of which was
to terminate at the Phipps Bend Nuclear Plant. One person objecting
to the proposed installation was a dairy farmer through whose farm
the line would pass. He was not worried about the proximity to stray
voltage or the very large electric field associated with such
lines. Despite the fact that he was over a hundred miles from the
plant, his concern was that his cows would be exposed to all that
radioactive electricity.

If the sun rises an hour earlier, most folks won't get up/go out an hour
earlier to enjoy it. But if it sets an hour later, they will stay up/stay out

When I lived in Luxembourg, the start of summertime in the UK was on
a different date from that used in Continental Europe. The official
reason given by the UK government was that the cows in the UK needed
their sleep, according to a LX ham who worked for the Luxembourg goverment.
