How to milk a cow!




My dad went to Switzerland recently and was kind enough to get me a few pictures of the farms they visited..He told me, that never in his life has he had such fresh foods on any trip.. Almost everything they ate came from a farm near by!

That would be amazing if we could do it in Kuwait!

Question: Does KDD or KD Cow have cow's in Kuwait that they milk? or is everything imported?


I would love to learn how to do milk a cow old style, with own two hands! I wouldn't mind living on a farm for a few weeks actually!

KD Cow will be the company with the local dairy (cow) farm as KD Cow is the only company of the two that produces fresh milk...check out their website. Probably why they chose the name KD Cow. KDD produce only Long-Life (UHT) milk. UHT milk is very questionable for health, especially for the young, and doesn't taste right compared to fresh milk...though that might be subjective and the funny/off taste can be masked by the flavourings to an extent. An interesting blog on UHT milk:

Fresh goats milk is good for your health Dana and usually better tolerated than cows milk.

Cows should graze, true. They can create pastures and put these under the right conditions to keep the cows happy if they haven't done so already. It will cost but happy cows = healthy milk = happy consumers who care.

There is a bigger issue with imported milk, especially if it is D----- !, perhaps! Watch this space/another blog maybe (maybe!!)..
