Question My husband and I have a huge disagreement about this.."At auction, which dairy cows bring the most money..the best looking cow or the one that gives the most milk?" Thank you so much...I do hope someone in the dairy field can answer this.
Answer The two go hand in hand. A cow can't give milk if she isn't well kept and well fed. At auction you can't tell when she was milked last, how much she gives etc unless her milk records come with her. Normally its a herd record not an individual record.
the cow that sells the most at any auction on any day is the one someone pays the most for. One day it could be the color, the next day the size, its dependent on many things, not best looks, which beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or milk that can't be judged on a single day.
