The amount of milk produced daily by an average cow is depicted by milk cartons. The amount of hay and other feedstuffs consumed daily by a Holstein cow are displayed, as well as a milking machine. A table located between the cow exhibits holds a display board and video player. The display board shows facts concerning the types of feeds consumed by a cow and the amount of milk produced. A logo was developed and used on signs and banners.
Speakers wear caps and tee-shirts with the logo.
The cow is our friend because she gives milk for her calf and for the farmer to sell to us. The cow's digestive system allows her to eat feed that could not be consumed by people. The cow turns the feed into a nutritious product for us to drink and dairy products for us to eat. Following the presentation, teachers are given cookbooks or coloring books for the children. Classes then visit the milking parlor.
