Is it just console or does cow farm only have a small amount of food for 3500 cows?

I had a look at this map today and progressed one day and all food gone. If you watch Farmer Kleins review on YT he suggests selling most of the livestock, which I guess defeats the purpose of the map.

Doesn´t it make sense that you need to give the animals food every day?

IRL you would feed your livestock (i.e. cows, horses, chickens) twice a day minimum. I have found that the feed amount is realistic in the primus that you would feed the cows and sheep twice a day once in the morning and again in the evening. that's just the way a livestock farm works, however let tell you if you had 3500 head of cattle you would be feeding and milking all day long, now what I find crazy is the need to feed sheep, sheep are grazing animals and would not need feeding most of the time. ( I don't do pigs however I would surmise that the ones included on the map would have the same twice a day feeding required)

For a 1 day/month setup, food capacity in the cowbarn is definitely way too small.

You start out with 2000 heads in total. As the map is using games default food/animal definition, food demand per month is at least 350x2000=700000 liters.
I'm pretty sure Angus and Limousin need 450 liters per head and month.
So food demand would be more like 350000+450000=800000 liters per month.

With only 150000 liters capacity in the cowbarn, you need to refill at least 6 times per month.

So yeah. To achieve that 2 times per day feeding, trough capacity needs to be increased or you need to play with 3 days per month.
