Desert milk, from farm to fridge


This morning a lot of people are drinking milk either with their coffee or tea. And people don’t know that in summer it is too hot for the cows to produce milk happily. But you still find it in the supermarkets and groceries; many bottles of milk that is enough for all, with many flavors. In Almaria industry have 135,000 Holstein cows in 6 super farms. The cows produce about 2.5 million liters a day. Almarai industry makes its own bottles to label the types of milks, yoghurt, and cheese. Almarai  have almost 3000 lorries and vans to send over the Gulf area. Half a century ago, people on the Arabian Gulf were using goats and camel milk which was stored in earthenware jars. The powdered milk is still produced and people buy it but not like before; the cows’ milk is the king now.
