Why does adult cow need to produce up to 200 liters of saliva per day?

Well, I don't know if a cow produces THAT much saliva, but really it's because of the fact that she tends to instinctively regurgitate and chew cud. Saliva helps break down the partly digested matter a bit more before it's reswallowed and redigested in the rumen.
