A far less hectic month. Our silly accountant think we went $15.536 in the red this month. But $15.000 of that was investment in greenhouse, and a water pipe extension so it's easier to get water to the greenhouse. (After hauling and hauling I figured I'd mount a hydrant next to the greenhouse so I can fill up the tank and empty it into the greenhouse without moving the tank. Silly amounts of water fitting into that thing)
The shop didn't warn me of the greenhouse needing $100 per month in property maintenance.. That's facts we need to learn from our accountant, and which we would have a hard time to figure out if we built multiple things. Monthly maintenance costs are way too hidden. Water costs are up to $26 a month. That's for water into cow and sheep pen, now for a full month. Not much of a worry, though it may increase with the numbers of animals.
Our asset report have a more somber estimation. $ +252 positive this month. We've gained a few products this month, getting us into the positive. It's the greenhouse products doing it. We haven't owned it a month yet, but the $100 monthly upkeep looks to be easy to cover. $630 in those three products alone, and that wasn't a full month either:

Some learnings from the numbers we're crunching:
- A ~2 month old cow eats 76.3 l/month of hay and produce 55.1 l/month of slurry.
- A ~2 month old sheep eats 18.67 l/month of hay and produce 2.083 l/month of wool.
- A ~2 month old chicken/rooster eats 6.67 l/month of barley. (Assuming roosters and chickens eat the same)
- A ~2 month old chicken produce 0.73 l/month of eggs. (Assuming roosters don't produce
- Seeding barley uses 500 l/hectares of seed.
