Is this an organic grass fed milk dairy?

[FloridaDairy]

Because of the high prevalence of insects that destroy crops, its very challenging to meet organic standards in Florida. The dairy farm in this video is not an organic, grass-fed operation but you can be assured that cows such as these in the video are fed wholesome and nutritious feed because a cows diet has oversight and input from animal nutritionists.

Also, farmers provide their cows with diets that are actually quite green. For example, much of the leftover citrus pulp that comes from the process of making orange juice in Florida is fed to cows and serves as a source of fiber.

how much would a barn like that cost

[FloridaDairy]

I'm not sure exactly how much a barn like that would cost but I do know that dairy farmers spend a lot of money making sure their cows are comfortable and well-taken care of. The cows even have their own dietitian to make sure they get the right blend of nutrients!
