Dairy cattle are a specific breed of cattle raised primarily for milk production. They are known for their ability to produce large quantities of milk, which is processed into various dairy products such as cheese, yogurt, and butter. Common breeds of dairy cattle include Holstein, Jersey, and Guernsey, each with unique characteristics and milk qualities.
These animals require proper care, including a balanced diet, regular veterinary check-ups, and adequate living conditions. Dairy farms often implement practices to ensure the health and well-being of the cattle, which in turn helps maintain high milk production levels. Sustainable farming practices are increasingly being adopted to minimize environmental impact.
