Your pasture managment is lacking! Onions in enough quantity to

taint milk is a sure indication that your pastures are way overgrazed

and in need of TLC! Healthy pasture won't grow any onions because

they all get outgrown by all that healthy grass!! When pasture is

overgrazed you get sheet erosion and bare ground showing between

plants which gives onions an opportunity to establish.

Tha use of charcoal activated is the solution to almost all strong odors or contaminants. Sears has a real cheap filter that works marvels with the strong odor of the onions. If interested ask me how to use it... really cheap.

An easy way to rid ones parcel is a very few pigs. The first winter our Tamworths spent on the farm they shallow rooted something all winter, the next spring,voila,very few onions. Now there are none.

Dear sweet ,Why thank you. Tact or the lack of it, has NOTHING to do with what I said or how I said it... straight forward- here is YOUR

problem that YOU presented and here is MY personal experiences with seeing how onions can take over a pasture if it's abused/overgrazed. Been milking cows or goats forever around here and never had the problem because we keep our pasture in good shape. My grandparents

taught me that, because they too, milked cow and never had the problem. Even my friends with +45 head commercial Jersey dairy don't have onion problem because they don't let pastures get run down.

Now, my friend down the valley who has too many goats, horses, and cows on her farm leaving pasture constantly eaten into the ground? She is eat up with onions!!! About the only thing that grows in spring is onions! Milk is AWFUL until some grass starts to grow.

LOL if my tact or lack of tact has anything to do with someone finding what I say/write/do useful? to do or not do something? Oh my, they are sure DOOMED to remain entrapped in their own small mindedness. ROTFL. Prettying things up and wrapping all that happy

horsesh*t in nice wrapping paper is a skill I never learned living out here on the farm. You learned at an early age to remain silent if you didn't want someone to tell you in straight terms just how the land laid.
