It is a truism that without a calf there is no milk. Milk that the farmer wants to be able to sell. That is why he usually separates the mother cow and calf soon after birth.

Milk from cows where the calf can stay with its mother longer. De Keuringsdienst visits the milkman to see with his own eyes the difference between these two methods of farming.
