    [CALM AMIDST CHAOS] While visiting a small town, Pedasi for the Santa Catalina festival, the town came alive with rich colours, sounds and excitement for one its biggest events. Like many other festivals in Panama, much of this excitement is fuelled by a lot of drinking of home made alcohol. Towards the end of the day there was much stumbling and confusion by many. When I asked to take a photo of this man he kindly let me do so and impressively took a very composed, calm stature despite the cacophony of excitement around him. However, he did not look at the camera. Instead his also very calm cow looked straight into the lense - somewhat knowingly. by: mimosa Views[580] Late in the afternoon at the 2012 Richmond Fair, after most of the livestock competitions have been completed and the humans have begun to pack everything up for the trips back to their farms, a cow watches and moos at me as I walk by one of the barns. by: thack Views[570] Six years after the mine in Rosia Montana was closed, local people can rely only on agriculture and on their livestock. It’s a simple life they have, but one full of joy. It’s the pleasure of working in the fresh air, the gratitude for the rain and the goodness of the sun that might probably be understood only by those who live in a close connection with nature. Most of the households have at least one or two cows. The grass is plenty and the meadows are rich in medical plants that assure highly nutritious and healthy meal for the cattle. Nobody heard about organic farming and bio products in this area simply because they don’t know any other way, nor can they imagine it. In 1989, there were 7.5 million cows in Romania. This number has decreased to 1.5 millions in 2012. The much awaited EU integration in 2007 did not help the small farmers: the Ministry of Agriculture does not support them and the European grants are out of their reach. So this is what a small farmer would get for their cow – a pierced ear with a registration number. by: lauraturdean Views[860] Inquisitive eyes|A young grazing Dzo stumbled onto me as I stopped for a break. by: nh22 Views[834] Snowstar the cow, he was enormous! His back was the same height as me and had very long legs. He was very friendly and curious. The day I left the farm, he was slaughtered, and his meat was already pre-ordered by several friends of S&R, all grass fed! by: pmok Views[727]

    Ask any Australian about Jersey and the only thing they can think of is the cows. The small island is part of the UK, but just off the edge of France with French road names, is full of Polish people and with Parishes (or countys) like St. Johns, St. ... Read more >
