The milk is collected from the cows by a vacuum pump placed on each teat of a cow's udder. The milk collected then follows a vast array of tubes and pipes that lead to a holding tank that holds all the milk from all the cows that are milked during that particular time period. Here pasteurization occurs, then the milk is collected by a pump from the milk truck, and taken away to a factory that will turn the milk into various dairy products from cheese and butter to 2% milk and ice cream.

Do they filter milk in a dairy farm?

No. Milk is not processed any further than pasteurization on the dairy farm. The milk collected into a big bulk tank on the farm is stored there until the truck arrives to collect the milk. The milk is then delivered to the closest factory that processes the milk, filtering out the fat to get several different types of milk (Homogenized, 2%, 1%, and skim) and deposits them in cartons or plastic jugs. The fat is saved for butter, cheese, ice cream, yogurt, and other dairy products, which are also made in a factory environment separate from the dairy farm.The only job of the dairy farm is to care for and raise the cows that produce milk, collect the milk from the cows using milk machines (and the advanced technology and hygiene associated with the seemingly simplistic task of milking cows), and store it in a bulk tank, and pasteurize it. A dairy farmer cannot nor has the facilities to do anything more with the milk than store it until the milk collection truck arrives.
