“A new report from scientists at Newcastle University shows that organic milk is higher in beneficial nutrients and fatty acids throughout the year. It comes in a long line of research proving the benefits of buying organic milk.
The paper not only shows why there is a difference in the nutritional quality of organic and non-organic milk, but also identifies the importance of feeding at least 60% grass or conserved grass to organic cows, as required by organic standards.
The research emphasises the huge importance of allowing cattle to graze outdoors and to eat a natural diet high in grass. This means organic cows do not depend on high levels of grain and proteins such as soya”.
This very important news was released by the Soil Association on it’s website. We invite you to read more about it.
