Most likely from watching the cows' calves nursing from the same area.
Why does the notheast of the United states have a lot of dairy farming?

What is the average life span of a Crohn's patient?
That pretty much depends on the severity of the disease and how it is treated. There are a number of treatments available that can help patients live a long, productive life.
NO. Milk comes from the MAMMARY glands which are located in the udder of a cow, not her bladder or kidneys.
Why is the dairy cow generally of species Bos Taurus?
Dairy cows are generally of the species Bos taurusbecause, for one, they share the same ancestor and two, they are very closely related, only separated by their breeding, which distinguishes them as a sort of "subspecies" (which they aren't, since a breed is not a subspecies of a specific species) within the Bos taurus species.
However, not all dairy cows are of the species Bos taurus. There are many other dairy breeds that are of the species Bos indicus, but only of which are found in Africa and Southern Asia.
Basically put the skinniest, tallest cow first and the fat short one last. Udder is very important! Judging "dairy" is a subjective thing, based upon experience and/or courses. Many factors affect "dairy". Spring of rib Dairy "character" Length of body and it's component parts. Size, structure, appearance and how well the udder is attached. And on, and on, and on.
Is milking cows conciderd a sport?
No. But wild cow milking is considered a sport in rodeo events, where a team of guys and or gals have to rope and wrassle a wild cow (quite often a beef cow that hasn't had much human contact) so that they can get some milk from her.
What is the difference between dairy and draught cattle?
Dairy cattle are thinner and more extreme in the femininity/masculinity traits in cows and bulls, respectively. Cows have LARGE udders that give more milk than the calf needs, and the milk is used for human consumption.
Draught or draft cattle are more blockier and thicker in depth and muscle and fat cover over their skeletal frame. They are used for pulling carts, ploughs, and other things and are also more commonly used for beef than milk.
Milk comes from the udders of female cattle (a.k.a cows).
Do you have to milk jersey cows?
Not if they don't need to be milked, no. But, if you're hired to milk dairy cows, and Jerseys are among those cows that need to be milked, then the answer would be a very obvious yes.
THIS IS PREPARED BY ADMIXTURE OF COW'S OR BUFFALO'S MILK OR BOTH WITH FRESH SKIMMED MILK OR BY ADMIXTURE WITH SKIM MILK RECONSTITUTED FROM SKIM MILK POWDER OR BY PARTIAL REMOVAL OR ADDITION OF MILK TO SKIM MILK. It should be pasteurised and show negative phosphate test. its fat content should be less than 1.5% and S.N.F not less than 9%.
Does the brand farmhouse milk torture their cows?
NO. If they would torture their cows, they wouldn't get any milk from their cows. This is because cows that are under ANY kind of stress, pain or illness either give very little milk or DO NOT give milk at all. In order to have cows that will give milk, they have to be comfortable, relaxed and well-fed.
How long do you boil hot bogs?
Remove them a minute after the water reaches a boil, if you had them in the pot the whole time. Hot dogs are already cooked. Putting hot dogs in boiling water simply heats them up. If you like them grilled, that's different, but they are still already cooked.
What is a dairy cow's habitat?
The habitat of a dairy cow is of a man-made one, either surrounded by walls and a tin roof which makes up a barn or pole-shed, or a fenced area that is called a paddock, corral, or pen. A dairy cow has learned through habit and habituation to come to the milk parlour--another man-made area--to be milked. If she is dry and anywhere from a couple months to a few days from calving, she is either confined to a separate pen with several other cows like her, or to a different corral or even pasture if it's summertime and the farmer can handle having his cows out on pasture. Cull cows may be lucky to face some "pasture time" before being shipped away to slaughter.
That is for the conventional, commercial dairy operation. Many such dairy operations, though, often have their cows confined indoors all their lives and never see, hear, smell or feel the grass beneath their feet throughout their lives, except maybe when they are growing up as replacement heifers. However, for unconventional dairy operations that follow a more grass-fed, natural approach will have the cows out on pasture for most of the year, often only seeing the inside of a barn during milking time or during the winter. This follows for all classes of cattle, from the replacement heifers up to the old cull cows. Some operations, like those in some parts of Europe, allow calves to nurse on the nurse cows or cows that aren't being used for milk production and feel the grass beneath their little hooves.
Is it safe to use dye on cows to colour there milk?
Now why on earth would you want to do that??? If you want to colour milk add dye to the milk itself that you get straight from the cow or from the grocery store, not on the cow herself!
What cows was developed to produce more milk?
Selective breeding, the farmer will select what bulls to breed to what cows in order to increase milk production.
Yes. It tastes bad, and if it has been sour for a long time bacteria MAY have grown in it. Many recipes call for sour milk, and if none is on hand it can be soured by using lemon juice or vinegar. In some countries, a treat is to eat sour milk over boiled potatoes. To most people it doesn't taste good, but if the milk was pastuerized it won't hurt to drink it or use it in a recipe. My coffee tasted odd today, not bad but somewhat tart. Then I noticed hours later that the milk I added to it smelled bad. It's been 6 hours since I had my first cup of coffee with the sour milk and I feel fine but in the future I would never intentionally drink sour milk. If the milk smells bad just throw it out. It's not worth risking getting sick or messing up your digestive system. At some point the milk will make you sick if it has turned bad, but apparently my sour milk had not reached that stage.
Which is more nutritious for a person - cow's milk or goat's milk?
Compared to cow's milk (3.25% fat) goats milk is higher in the following:
Vitamin C
Vitamin A
Thiamin (V. B1)
Niacin (V. B3)
Vitamin B6
Vitamin E (slightly)
Vitamin K (slightly)
Calcium
Copper
Iron
Magnesium
Manganese
Phosphorus
Potassium
Sodium
Cholestrol
Total saturated fatty acids
Total monounsaturated fatty acids
Total polyunsaturated fatty acids
Most amino acids (all except aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, and tryptophan)
However, goats milk is lower in the following nutrients:
Water
Riboflavin (V. B2)
Pantothenic Acid (V. B5)
Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin)
Vitamin D
Folate
Selenium
Zinc
Lactose
Remarkably, when comparing fat content, cow's milk is lower in fat than goats milk, when comparing whole cow's milk to goat's milk, and it is also lower in energy content, carbohydrates, protein, and mineral (as seen above). Goats milk has over 2% more fat than whole milk from cows.
So, taking all that into consideration, goat's milk is healthier in terms of getting more vitamins and minerals than cow's milk as well as being good for those people who are lactose intolerant, but less healthy since it is higher in fat and lacking some other important minerals such as Vitamin B12. Check out the tables on the Cornell University site posted below.
Depends on breed, sex, weight, age, colouration, temperament, location, time of year, etc.
