This is a very good platform for dairy value chain stakeholders’ interaction and information sharing.

Lots of good information available in this website but please try to verify it’s correctness before publishing. Above cow is said to have produced over 1 million liters of milk so far. Do the calculation: at nine years old and assuming she has started to produce milk on the day she was born and has never been dry a day in her life ( this assumption alone is total nonsense of course…) then she would have had to produce 1,040,000÷(9×365)
=317 litres of milk every day of her life!
