Q6: In on day a dairy cow can produce enough milk for 8.7 gallons of ice cream! If you could only choose one ice cream flavor to eat for the rest of your life – what would it be? #DairyENGAGED #NationalFarmersDay #UndeniablyDairy

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@MomLuvsSPORTZ @rychepet @AmericanDairyNE Hahaha truth

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@MomLuvsSPORTZ @AmericanDairyNE Me too! Haha

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@MomLuvsSPORTZ @AmericanDairyNE The cows we take to cow shows have named. They can get off if they feel uncomfortable or during their monthly heat cycle.

A5: caring for the animals and working outside!

[American Dairy North East @AmericanDairyNE]

Q5: #DYK dairy farming has created an estimated 900,000 jobs in the U.S. alone? What do you think is the best part of working on a dairy farm? #DairyENGAGED #NationalFarmersDay #UndeniablyDairy

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@MomLuvsSPORTZ @AmericanDairyNE They certainly have preferences that we learn and accommodate. But since their big animals we always handle them with caution and care #DairyENGAGED

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@_jenniferxoxo_ @AmericanDairyNE We donate any additional funds (after expenses) to food banks for milk 🥛 #DairyENGAGED

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

[American Dairy North East @AmericanDairyNE]

Q4: Farmers are all about giving back to their community. How do you engage with your community? #DairyENGAGED #NationalFarmersDay #UndeniablyDairy

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@rychepet @AmericanDairyNE It’s certainly an expense but pays for itself since comfy cows produce lots of milk!

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

A3: on the farm we have temperature controlled curtains that automatically adjust with the weather to keep the cows comfortable! #DairyENGAGED

[American Dairy North East @AmericanDairyNE]

Q3: Methane digesters, GPS, crop sensors, activity trackers?! Technology is helping farmers provide better care for their animals and their crops. How was technology improved your life? #DairyENGAGED #NationalFarmersDay #UndeniablyDairy

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@MomLuvsSPORTZ @AmericanDairyNE Fall! They like 65-40 degree temperatures #DairyENGAGED

@motherearth2000 We have manure storage units as well. That are regulated and built with insight from engineers to ensure they are secure to store manure until we can use it as fertilizer on the fields.

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

A2: we use dried, recycled manure solids to bed our cows! #DairyENGAGED

[American Dairy North East @AmericanDairyNE]

Q2: Farmers aren’t just dedicated to quality animal care. As original stewards of the land, farmers are committed to providing wholesome food while protecting the environment. What do you do to protect the environment at home or on the farm? #DairyENGAGED #NationalFarmersDay

[Emma Andrew-Swarthout @EmmaAndrew3]

@AmericanDairyNE A1: I grew up on a multiple family partnership which included 4 different families working together! #DairyENGAGED
