Blending up balanced bites! 🐄

Dairy cows eat a Total Mixed Ration (TMR), or "cow casserole," that contains ingredients such as corn silage, haylage and more. The components are mixed together so each bite the cow takes provides them the energy they need to make nutrient-rich milk.

Here is a view of the feed mixer in action. 👀 Once the recipe is complete, it is distributed to the cows.

“Cows prefer an environment that is controlled and consistent each day," said Michigan dairy farmer Gertie van den Goor. 🌡️⛅ "They don’t like to sunbathe or sweat, so they are most comfortable where the temperature isn’t too hot and where the sun is not shining directly on them."

At Green Point Dairy on a nearly 80-degree day, fans are on moving fresh air throughout the entire length of the barn and the roof is blocking the hot rays of the sun.

There's no doubt that athletes like World Champion soccer player Lindsay Tarpley (@lindsaytarpley5) are goal-oriented. ⚽ Shoot to stay hydrated this summer on and off the field with milk.

At 90% water, milk also contains electrolytes like calcium, potassium, magnesium and sodium to rehydrate and help replenish critical nutrients lost in sweat.
