Farmer’s Nightmares
Vložit

- In the 1850s, New York witnessed the worst scandal in history related to farmers. Tens of thousands of people suffered, with eight thousand infants dead in just one year, all because farmers decided to save on cow food. They sold the contaminated milk of sick animals, adulterating it with water, sugar, plaster, and even rotten eggs. This resulted in mass poisoning and a soaring number of casualties. A true farmer's nightmare... but those were bad farmers. These people knew what they were getting into and did it anyway. But some things are simply impossible to control. Farms are not the safest place in the world.

Enjoy the video friends!
Very nice 🙂 excellent 💖💞
I love the vid how u peak topic
How many subscribers do you have bro?? Why do you hide it?
Cool
You don’t have to say that twice! :D
I was on a farm in Tanzania, roughly 6 years ago. There were some cows. The gas that was produced by the waste was captured and fed to the kitchen hob. All food was cooked on cow's methane. A very nice and direct method.
wow
Thats resourceful as heck. I suppose in tanzania they try to make the most out of every possible resource they can produce unlike america where its waste waste waste and nobody seems to give Afook
NICE!
they do the same here too! in Europe it is used since the 80s, btw, "Steve" mentioned it in the video!!
How do you capture the gas?
That's incredible what seaweed can do. That's a huge difference. Nature's odor eater.
I'm amazed
It can actually be used to, I believe power buildings, or maybe an air freshener. Another thing I saw, was it being used so when you breath it grows, and you may get a quick snap after about 10 minutes.
Seaweed ranks like fish.. I don't understand, it must be like how the noise canceling headphones pay one sound to cover another

@@bloodsweatandtearsforeverl9833 tbh fish is a lot better than cow shit :P
On a neighbouring farm they harvest the methane from the manure and it’s sold back to terasen gas (Canadian gas company on west coast). So we proudly boast that my farmhouse is heated by cow farts. 👍🏻🇨🇦
Honey can you start the grill
Sets cow on fire.
@@thatoneguyffs
That‘s like a self cooking meal then 🤔
i worked on a cow farm when i was younger and we were adding water to the basin below the cows ( where all the poop drops to, so we could drain it ) as it was mixing ( and we were standing outside ) we saw a couple cows just pass out. and called the farmer as we never saw such a thing, he ordered us ( both 15 and 16 ) to instandly run away and he turned off the machine. The gasses that came up from the basin killed the cows instandly and gave a dozen others severe methane poisoning ( so they had to be put down ), ever since i have been handling cowpoop with the utmost care, if we were standing inside at that time, we wouldve died b4 anyone wouldve noticed
The cows that die had to be placed in a bin next to the farm and collected by a certified company. This however never happened. A nearby Chinese restaurant took the dead cows and used them for their food. We found this out years later. ( they obv got arrested and prosecuted )
ew why would they eat that. anyway which country was that?
@@africankidd3642 i don't think it was China as they wouldn't get arrested for that. It might have been America as I did hear a similar situation with a Chinese restaurant feeding people with stray cats they butchered behind the building from my step dads story. They were shut down soon after that. They all come from China cause the people there eat everything. From ants to bats and from cats to dogs. If its moving its food, not sure if they'll eat humans too I think they try to avoid that but if they're hungry enough 🤔 they probably will. Sorry, from what I have heard this is what I learned. I personally do want to visit China as I also know you can't judge people without meeting em.
@@Differ220 good attitude. Just because a few people do something doesn't mean they represent their entire country.

@@sherylcascadden4988 ye, like when I say I'm half Korean and everyone starts asking me if I ever ate a dog, also the dogs eaten in Asia are from a special race that is breed like any other farm animal, I would never eat them since it still sounds horrible to do.
This adds a whole layer to "smoking kills" If you're on a farm
Ciekawe..
Only our beloved narrator and Steve are capable of making 20+ minutes video and it's still entertaining and quite honestly i can't say the same for other channels. I loved every bit of this video, get some rest Steve, you have done well! 👍
Mr. Ballen, Casual Criminalist, Wendigoon. There are others.
( edit : Wendigoon deserves he's capital letter, srry dude )
@@asavapowell7480 joseph vincent s videos/docs on mma/ufc fighters are amazing too. Mrballen is great. There's few channels that do like 40min videos on SCP or something like warhammer lore that are great too
@@007oskari thanks for the Joseph reference tho... Don't think I found him yet. Try Wendigoon if u don't have anything better to do since He do be "Oh, so wholesome" 😁👊🏽
@@007oskari and yeah, why be Warhammer lore so deep and intressting anyways? Lol.... Cause it really is, never played it tho
There are some that can make videos that are over 2 or 3 hours that are good.
I'm thinking of raising a couple cows soon, and this video is so helpful because I didn't think extractions from cows were so deadly.
Gunna definitely do my best to implement the algae diet though, so I never have to worry about them becoming balloons xD
honestly as a farmer of 30 cows you shouldn't worry that much if you have like 2-4 cows
X Time do use causes fuel.
Algae is pretty easy to grow shrimp eat it as well as ducks and some fish. Just have a huge pool in your area that has plenty of sunlight. Go to a fish store and buy algae and put the algae in the said pool. Give it some time to grow before use and your all set
@@Differ220 thanks alot, I'm writing all this down lol
@@shakeelbryan5741 cool.
Poor Steve lol don’t worry we appreciate all the hard work you put into these videos

"It is illegal to complain about the smell coming from cow farms"
Me, who doesn't, and never has had, a sense of smell: "Huh... I wonder how cheap those properties are..."
the gasses will still probably make me dizzy af tho
Hahah, high five, I lost a sense of smell about 5 years ago (before it became popular)
@@loriandybus782 I mean, it's nice and all not being able to smell literal shit, but never having had it in the first place, I'd love to be able to know what flowers smell like...
and food...
and candles...
yo just to be able to go down a candle aisle and sample everything... :(
If you think that living near a farm will make you feel dizzy, do you also think that farmers are high all the time?
@Leif If it works like that then those farmers that died in the cow poop pit were high off their *sses XD
@@chucklebutt4470 As far as I can tell, my sense of taste is fine. In fact, if a smell is strong enough, I can usually taste it when I open my mouth. Like, strong chemicals, chopped onions, even sweaty socks if they're close enough to my face (yes, this has been proven through testing). It has to be really strong, and even then it has to be a while after I've eaten so any aftertaste is gone. A cow farm a few miles upwind probably isn't gonna end up bothering me... though I've never actually been a few miles downwind from a cow farm, so who knows?
That whole "wah wah it smells" is so ironic, especially as farms are usually located away from city people. City people then move out to the countryside and start complaining
Yep. People who don't like like the outdoors of the country side moving in closer to nature and then bitching about it.
9:25 So we crossbreed cows so much we need to make holes in them to prevent them from exploding? Yeah sounds humane to me 😂😂😂
Right bro, he is trapped in Bill Gates bs. Read about Vandana Shiva.
hasn't much to do with too much breeding, but rather with determination of Science to study cows
knowing all about cows is a several billion dollar buisness......and kinda uncomfortable and creepy in this case....
@@feldgeist2637 Yip I know. However. We do over breed animals. Some cows can't even give birth without the use of circumcision due to over breeding.There to bulky! And even for scientific study's. We are crazy to put hols in animals just to study them. But this is a discussion with a lot of angles 😉
Had no idea that cows were so deadly with their gas. Got plenty of farms were I live. Smells to the high heavens when they sling that manure. Didn't think it would cause explosions or death. Does make sense though. Was fun to watch. Great video
They forgot to tell that cows get inflated when they get food they normally would not get. Or only get that kind of crap. They naturally eat grass and other plants like it with not much energy to it.
However to boost the cows milk production they are breed into milk machines and to sustain that energy need to produce so much milk they cant just eat grass. They get mostly concentrated feed for this reason. One of the the things they get is soy and corn. This is to much for the stomach of the cows. Naturally, cows wont get inflated and this is the shit and cruel stuff we done to them. Remember the BSE sickness from the 90? This killed people and cows because the brain was eaten by the sickness! THIS was caused by concentrated feed that was made out of cows they feed to cows, super nice eh? It was really scary and people shit them self and stopped to produce this kind of feed INSTANT all over the world.
@@Vanadium i think you should go see what cow actually eat at a dairy farm instead of spewing stupid shit like this. Also a cow on pasture gives less milk then a cow in a cow barn because cows in a barn spend more time laying down and chewing thire cud then spending energy walking and grazing also dairie cow dont get the proper nutrition on just pasture alone.. also since you dont know all dairy farms have a air system that filters fresh air in and old air out every two hours so there for there is no smell. And thire gas is no diffent then our. also most feeds are also byproducts from foods we cant eat ourselves. Like cotten seed an Canola from the Canola factory that would other wise go in the land fill.
@@bonniegrandstaff5500 to bad I was raised on a farm and we only had cows.
A good build farm don't need air filters. They get enough air because the entire building is partial open and the wind does the rest.
Did I said they get grass only? Some cows make more milk then others , that's what I said. Breed makes the most difference and ofc the feed makes also a difference also if they don't do anything , duh !
The next thing is you want to tell me how to light up a cow who get their natural food right from the fields of grass around the farm but still stay inside? Or add the gassleaking hole? They don't need this, they are healthy enough.
If you read my text again you find the difference in conventional pastures and highly industrialization of farms. Robots who milk the cows inside a carousel and so on..
@@bonniegrandstaff5500 Making a universal statement is just asinine: " all dairy farms have...". You have, all by yourself, destroyed your own credibility.
I've lived on a farm all my life, so had my dad. Exploding and inflating cows is nearly as common as the vid makes it seem. Has never happened to us or local farmers.
I am getting mixed messages from this comment
its called "bloat", you can google it.
Perhaps the diet was the cause.

Man, this is more a short-easy going documentary than a video. Great job as always!
Daymm...the amount of effort in this video is...hatts off man..keep up the good work 😍
Whoever edited this video, and made the thumbnail did wonderfully!! Very smooth transitions, and the thumbnail looks very natural.
I lived in Lacey, WA (connected to Olympia, the capitol), and on the outskirts of that city is an area called Hawk's Prarie, which we locals pray we never have to visit. It's becoming much more built up, and much more residential as time passes... only one problem with that: Ostrom Mushroom Farm. So far as I'm aware, Ostrom has been in the area for a very, very long time- much longer than residents have been common. They use manure as the main substrate for their mushrooms, in a large, enclosed warehouse (enclosed to control how much light the mushrooms receive). A few times a day, they turn on fans and refresh the air within the warehouse. If a bus has passed through the area while they're fanning, it will reek as though someone was lactose intolerant, and let loose some wicked diarrhea in the bus long passed Hawk's Prarie. So far as I know, the residents are becoming increasingly upset with the smell, but they can't do anything, because Ostrom has been there so much longer. Nonetheless, with as much as the city has been adding residential plots to that area, I wonder if Ostrom will ever be ousted- or even offered a place to move.
Thank you for putting this episode together- it's a topic I've been well aware of, living in a farm-integrated city, but a topic I feel most people are unaware of. I'm not against eating meat, but I definitely believe there's better ways of doing it than we have going, currently.
I used to live near there. Smelled like more than animals feces for sure
I love your videos, I always love learning new things on your videos every day! thanks for making videos and doing amazing job! can't wait to see more
Take a drink every time you say videos🥴😵
Enjoyed watching a longer video! Thanks for all the hard work!!!!!
This is what I call quality video. Great job!
The video was almost double than his normal video but still very very intersting 👍👍👍👍
Bro I always stay awake till midnight to watch our videos 🤣
This is the best informative video I've seen in a long time! Thanks

Thank you Steve
the longest video i watch on Watop. i love it
Hey WATOP, i love the videos! I've been playing them as background music whenever i'm doing schoolwork but it distracts me sometimes because your occasional switch from topic to topic and straying away at the title becomes so interesting because my ADHD-having dumb ass never seems to focus on a subject that lasts for too long. Also, i learn a lot from you, i've seen people complain about clickbait, but it's just really you researching related topics and want to share with us, and i find no problem with it. Seriously, keep up the great work man 👍 i go to you for entertainment despite you being an educational channel, you've set up a fun atmosphere, i love it :)
Simply spraying cow or pig manure on farm land is not allowed in the Netherlands. Manure has to be injected, so it's immediately under ground. Costs a bit more, but it saves a lot of complaints.
Notes:
- It's not perfect.
- I have not looked this up, it's just from memory.
- However, wherever you go through the countryside, you never see or smell fresh manure, or the tanks just spraying it the way they did, long ago. Whew.
The injection is not only for the smell, but mainly to reduce emmisions. The sandy soil of the netherlands is particularly bad, which is why they have been one of the first to legislate stricter spreading rules.
It'd amazing how your videos are so good, u got me clicking on a title I could care less about and be so interested I'm shocked. Keep it up please. I've learned more in 2 months about nature and science than I did in 12 yrs of conventional school
Just love this channel every time I see a new video I learn something new
I live in the Texas Panhandle. When I first got here, the smell of the (extremely high number of) cattle ranches, feedlots and slaughterhouses bothered me... well, moderately. It wasn't torture or anything. The slaughterhouses were particularly distinct from ordinary cow smell; I once described it as "fried sewage". But now I've been here for about 14 years or so and it's just... normal. I've done some construction work on farms, driven around and near them. It doesn't even bug me now. In fact, it even feels like it's almost a positive thing. Whenever I move away, I might miss it. You really can get used to anything.
Yeah, farm smell can be intrusive at first, but you get used to it very quickly. Slaughterhouses not so much.
Swine slurry sprayed as fertilizer on fields would bother you. It will make you vomit. In my rural area, even farmers objected and the county outlawed it. They do use chicken litter all the time, though, and that's bad enough; I've never gotten used to it. They still let folks bury dead horses and livestock on their land. I worry about my well.
I live near a farm in the UK and every spring it smells of poop, its a fantastic opportunity to clear your nose after those winter colds and honestly nobody here seems to mind it, in any of the places I've lived or talked to in the UK. Its mostly the city dwellers that very rarely smell it that can't stand it.
the videos keep getting better and better! great job!
This video was soo informative. Thank you!
Love the vids man
Great video its amazing that you post great videos everyday
The whole video was very informative, thank u ♥️♥️♥️

You might want to look into the difference of methane produced between grain/corn fed beef and grass fed beef.
My understanding is most cattle are at least corn finished(fed a corn diet before slaughter) which cows have the wrong stomach to digest leading to massive overproduction of methane (oversimplified).
I beleve the study you are referring to compares corn fed and finished with algae fed cows, however if you compare algae and just any old grass it would be much closer in methane produced without all the added transportation greenhouse gasses from moving the algae.
Along with rotational grazing and relying on grass it has been shown to be one of the largest and most energy efficient methods of carbon sequestration while also lowering the labor needed to produce meat& milk and building the soil with organic materials and better habitat for microorganisms.
But don't just take my word for it, reserch for yourself and learn about the beautiful symbiosis that has been going on for millenia.
Think about it, if cows and other ruminants are such a cataclysmicly horrible problem then why hasn't millions of years farts rendered the earth an empty fire ball swirling through the cosmos...?
This is the longest video I watched on your channel so far and I like it, but I don't think so if steve will do it again because he seem exhausted to do a research hahaha anyway I love your all videos, very informative and also entertaining. thank you steve, to do the hardwork for research and give us a loads of info.💕💕
I grew up on a cow farm in Iceland, never have I ever seen cows get bloated by gas or needed their rumen punctured.
Thanks for the long informative video Steve...wow! my coffee was cold already... you're great...Thanks again.
For the record, the reason Methane related power sources didn't take off, is because burning methane still releases Co2. . . It still causes global warming, greatly so.
To think, we could be using cows to power our civilizations
@@thesauceman8457 Hmm… that means… by mixing between the "ruminants animal" farms and the gas refinery, even the gas power plant? 🤔
Now this was a video , i wish every video of yours is 20 mins long
Steve, I've worked in the poultry industry for years and I tell you it smells a lot! Greetings from Tunisia.
This is the best WATOP video ever!!!
Here in Iowa, now the "fertilizer" is being spread on the fields in the fall and spring, filling waterways with nitrogen. Des Moines Iowa has one of the biggest nitrogen removal systems in the world to treat their drinking water
Oh, man! That CANNOT be good! I bet cancer is really high around that area!(?)
The anthrax scenario is really scary. In Maryland, there's a place called Beltsville farms, run by the University of Maryland. They have cows with glass stomachs. My dad and I use to ride bikes there in the 1980's. It was quite interesting. The views and the smells.
On Powder Mill Road, right?...
I drove transit buses past that place many of times and during the evening at the Sun's peak, the smell is abnormal
Whoa! That HAD to be quite a seen!!
I NEVER KNEW THAT! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thanks for this info 🙏
Love the vids
Small note about the additives to methane and similar smell-less, explosive, gases, part of the reason people started to do that was because of the New London School Explosion.
In March of 1937 in Rusk County Texas, Lemmie Butler turned on a sander in the London School, sparking the natural gas that had built up from a leak in the school’s heating system. That spark caused an explosion that killed over 295 and many more were injured, making it the third worst disaster in Texas history.
I have enjoyed this entertaining and very informative video God bless you Steve and WATOP
Great information. This is better than Tv
it would be great if you made a video about hybrid animals
What's gonna be it's next title???
Wow. Great informative interview.
Watop is the best at narration. Been watching this from yesterday
Now that you mention it, i remember that some years ago a farmer in in my country create a stove that using fuel from his cow, i am not really sure how but i vaguely remember he using the dung and mix it with something not the methane they produce
You mix things with the dung to release and capture the methane, or you burn the dung itself.
He was probably mixing it with saw dust or wood shavings to improve the smell. When I was a kid we had a small wood heater in the tack room and we did this because plain manure is a bit stinky 🦨
Thanks for telling me the farm is one of the most dangerous places to work
I live on a farm
Same, tho we do row crops not livestock. Still a lot to be wary of
Great video!! May I suggest more videos like this? Everytime I watch your videos I wish them to be longer, thx in advance!!
I like this documentary style video! Keep it up!
I’m afraid of cows now 😭😭😭

Bro our country India is specifically a krushi pradhaan desh means a country who's main source of income is from farm. And live stocks are the center of attraction.
Worth noting. Even with the right to farm laws and similar that ensure the farmer is allowed to farm there are laws that the farmer must also follow. It actually is possible for farmers to get in trouble for their farms being to stinky though this is rare as most farmers keep their farms relatively clean (for a farm I mean) and the only way for the farm to become that bad would involve the farmer being negligent with the management of the farm and the animals on it. Yes the farm will still stink even when maintained properly but nothing compared to a farm that is not managed well.
Thank you I just learned something.
I remember playing Worms Armageddon where they have Mad Cow bomb that explodes really big. Now I understand why.
Wtf guys you all just have a single job to install proper ventilation system ..........not in cows but in farms
Proper ventilation is so important for any king of livestock
I feel like this video paints an unfair picture of the American livestock farmer. Most farms that I have been around have a much lower net carbon footprint than your average household. Animal waste is recycled to fertilize crops and build up top soil. The ammonia is used up by crops. While methane is a concern most of it is broken down in the upper atmosphere. Much quicker than CO2 emissions. As for the portion of the video on Anthrax outbreaks, I have never heard of a livestock operation being a cause of an Anthrax outbreak so not sure while it was given time in this video. All that being said, I do enjoy this creators videos only wish more time would have been spent researching this topic. I think it would have been much more in tune with reality.
Geez!
Talk about the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in animal format!

"Lidocaine injections in several spots, completely anesthesizing the area."
As someone who, about three times a year, has to get a medical procedure that involves shoving needles through my back under lidocaine (and pain meds) let me just say... Those poor cows. Lidocaine in no way fully numbs an area. You still feel the pressure, and pin pricks of pain that can range from "ouch" to "holy hell!" Depending on how much oxygen and pain meds you've been given.

So , back in 2001, San Jacinto "California", I exercised Frisian horses on a dairy farm that was located down the hill from the now infamous Scientology compound in the Hemet valley California, (golden Era film production company , had a pirate looking ship and mysterious death as janitor electrocuted via moping) back on topic; the Scientologists who moved in way after the farm , were suing the dairy farm on account of all the flies. This is a true documented court case.just before Tom started jumping on furniture and arguing morning news anchors about the history of psychology. In fact I wonder if the head of scientology's missing wife was held there now that I think about it?. Anyways I was just the horse trainer, except the horses spoke Spanish and I only knew German commands so I didn't stick around long. Ha ha. I was still in high school give me a break.
