dairy industry
Cows to cartons
The dairy industry encompasses the commercial production, processing, and distribution of milk and milk-derived products like cheese, butter, yogurt, and cream.
It includes farming operations that raise and milk cows, goats, or sheep, as well as the facilities that pasteurize, package, and transport these products.
The dairy industry has faced criticism from animal welfare advocates.
