An intimate, symbiotic relationship exists between antsand aphids. They are often compared to cattle, with the ants acting as protectors and ranchers. What aphids have that ants want is something called honeydew, a sweet substance that is excreted by aphids through their anus and contains surplus sugar from the aphid's diet. Ants protect aphid eggs during the winter, and carry the newly hatched aphids to new host plants, where the aphids feed on the leaves and the ants get a supply of honeydew.
Ants use aphids for their nectar-like secretions .

Keep cows for the nectar they give?
Cows don't give nectar, they give milk. Cows are mammals, not plants or flowers. However, there is a particular insect that farms another insect for its nectar, and these would be ants farming aphids and milking them like humans milk cows. Once the aphids are done producing, the ants eat them, also just like what humans do with cows when they cannot produce milk anymore.
Why do plants provide bees with nectar?
The sweet smell and taste of the nectar attracts bees and other flying insects. When these insects fly to other flowers, they transfer pollen from one flower to another, thereby pollinating the plants.

Do cows give milk in the winter?
It's probably because it was too cold for the farmer to keep up with the milkings. Either that or it was too cold and miserable for the cows to be able to keep producing milk. Cows should be comfortable and warm enough to keep producing milk, but if they're too stressed from cold or sickness, or if they are not milked regularly, they will eventually dry up.
