Happy National Cheese Curd Day! The ancient Romans had a dish called Globuli, which takes cheese curds, dredges them in flour, fries them in olive oil, then coats them with honey. Cheese curds are the precursor to cheese. They are fresh (not aged) and they squeak when you bite into them! They have a short shelf life, so be sure to eat them up quick!

At this time of day, the cows are often finished with their daily exams. Some are still eating breakfast, some have laid down to rest. It’s peaceful here on the farm!

Livestock judging became popular in the 1950s.
.
Livestock had always been assessed by farmers and butchers to evaluate quality. In the 1950s, the industry started using more scientific methods to assess the animals, based on consumer and industry demands. Soon livestock judging shows were naming champions with strong genetics that were highly sought after!

There are two subspecies of domestic cattle: bos taurus and bos indicus.
.
Bos taurus are the dairy cows as we know them in the U.S., and originated in Europe and Britain. These cattle do not have a hump. They are much higher milk producers! Bos indicus originated in south central Asia, but most bos indicus in the U.S. came here by way of Brazil. Bos indicus have a humped back, and are generally more well adapted to stresses in climate, such as heat stress.

One key component of #DairyKind training is to reduce stress on all animals at all times! All cattle deserve to be treated with kindness and respect. Different dairy farmers choose different breeds and it is important to know the breeds and work with proper stockmanship at all times.
