The Mystery of the Milking Robots

A dairy farmer's fight against a multinational company

Doxy

Johan van Rijthoven is a modern farmer who would do anything to pass on a healthy farm to his children, just like his ancestors.
Because his cows are inexplicably no longer producing enough milk and this threatens his farm's demise, the dairy farmer fights the multinational company that supplied him with three faulty milking robots.
A battle that leads to confrontations: with himself, with his immediate environment, and with uncontrollable forces on his farm.
