Edible protein

Cows are essential. Without cows, there would be no milk for the dairy products that we deliver to our customers all over the world. A cow is unique because it can convert products that are not edible to humans, such as grass and the by-products of human food, into milk and meat. Research by the ILVO (the Flanders Institute for Agriculture, Fishing and Food Research) has demonstrated that cattle that eat a lot of grass are net producers of human edible protein. They therefore produce more edible proteins (in the form of milk or meat) than they consume. From grass and by-products a cow can make 1.5 to 3.5 times more products that people can eat.
