Milk Facts

carton iconHow do you get the milk out of the cow?

Farmers used to milk their cows by hand, but now a machine milks cows. The milking machine has four cups (called a cluster)—one cup for each teat. Before the cups are fitted on, the farmer washes the cow’s udder and teats with a disinfectant solution, then rinses and dries each teat.
