Wow my friend! that cost is too high for a bale of hay. How do you expect farmers to make a profit from the sale of milk?

At the price you are offering means it will cost more than a thousand shillings to feed a cow in one day.

Assuming that good cow yields 35 liters[ Remember most cows don't produce more than 20 liters] in a day and milk goes for 40 shillings per liter, a farmer will earn 1,400 shillings.

When all the costs are deducted from this, the result will be a loss!

Farmers can only make profit if the price of hay does not exceed 150 shillings.
