My Uncle started with a "family" farm in up state new york, maybe milking 80-100. Over the years as my Cousins took over, it turned into a commercial farm where they milk over 1000. The scale is pretty massive: from the barns that go on forever, to the giant pools of manure, the horizontal bunkers that store the sileage. They adapted I suppose - and because its a 3+ family farm with plenty of workers they can get time off from the grind. My Uncle, however, for years was the sole owner and worked his ass off 7 days a week. Its taken him a very long time in his retirement to be able to enjoy his time.
