Cows’ Milk Output Reveals Value Beyond Looks
A dairy study from the college of agriculture shows two cows with similar appearance can yield very different milk. One produced 249 pounds of butter fat costing $64.15 in feed and net $10.55, while the other gave 387 pounds with $66.50 feed and $49.60 profit. The test argues weighing and testing each cow is the only accurate way to assess value.
