How many cows are at your farm?
On Australian farms, the number of cows can range from a few hundred to over a thousand!
On Australian farms, the number of cows can be really different depending on the size of the farm.
- Some small family farms might only have 100–200 cows.
- Bigger farms can have 1,000 cows or more!
- On average, most Australian dairy farms have about 250–300 cows.
So the answer is: it can be anywhere from a few hundred to a thousand or more, but they all play a part in keeping the country stocked with fresh dairy.
