Climate alarmists promote corn-based cow diets that alter milk composition and cheese quality
06/12/2025 / By Willow Tohi



French study finds grass-fed cow diets correlate with richer cheese flavor and nutrition.

Corn-based diets reduce methane emissions but risk “duller” cheese texture.

Dairy farmers in Brazil and France adopt adaptive grazing and feed strategies.

Critics challenge environmentalists’ role in promoting grain-based diets over grazing.

Agricultural systems have historically adapted to climate variability without catastrophic outcomes.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Maybe if they added cockroaches, maggots, or spiders to the corn it would be better. :whistle:

Best beef is range fed with a 90-120 day grain finish. Leave off that grain finish and you will lose marbling and the meat will be lean, and will taste gamey to city pallets.

And grain finishing is seldom corn. I wish. Corn is the cheapest grain you could use. Cracked corn with be part of it - as filler - but you want a high protein finish - 20-22% feed - That's oats and barley. Feed that runs heavy to corn is 15%

I never ran the finisher. I finished em on oats, barley, and molasses, with a free choice molasses mineral tub... And a touch hot on the hay... An orchard mix with a little bit of clover and alfalfa... That'll get you a prime beef with a nice, marbled meat, and not a whiff of gaminess.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Yep. Corn is low end feedlot fare.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
