There used to be a time when milk producers were focused on squeezing as much milk out of a cow as possible. But today, EU farmers are being rewarded to produce less milk. Does this change the attention payed to nutrition of these high performing animals.

Market prices have always been in the lead to say whether the dairy industry is doing well or not and whether we produce too little or too much.
