Holsteins produce 76 percent of U S milk and 80 percent in Kansas and Franklin County. Originating in Northern Holland, the breed spread through Europe before arriving in the United States as early as 1621 with a major import in 1861. Experts cite higher milk output, larger size, and strong numbers as reasons for dominance.
