Farmers have long days, their work is hard and the pressure is high. On top of that, they face more and more regulations, as well as criticism from society. The documentary ‘misten, melken, managen’ (‘muck out, milk, manage’) offers a closer look at the lives of four female farmers. They reveal what it takes to run a farm and why they keep going despite the tough conditions.
