Farm Animals

A cottager's farm (that is a small farm) in Narjesbergen in 1871 had two oxen, six cows, two sows, forty sheep, and forty bee-hives.

In the flatlands near the Weser River and the North Sea the predominant type of farms are dairy. Instead of fencing, small canals are used to keep the cows in the fields. The effect is quite charming as it appears in many places as if the cows are totally free to roam.
