Jersey Cows: A Dairy Farmer's Commitment to Tradition and Quality
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- A dairy farmer shares his lifelong dedication to raising Jersey cows, emphasizing their personable nature, efficiency in reproduction, and the superior quality of their milk, which is higher in protein, calcium, and vitamins. Facing the volatility of milk prices, he innovates by starting a bottling operation, embracing vat pasteurization and non-homogenization to maintain the milk's natural state, ensuring the survival of his cherished herd and business through perseverance and a unique niche market.
Dairyman Garry Hansen couldn't count on a consistent price for his milk due to the volatility of the dairy market that nearly drove him out of business. So to save his cows, he had to become a processor and distributor of his own milk.

My grandma had a Jersey cow what a gentle cow she was. We used to climb on her back and ride her like a horse.
Thanks. My one-year old son is going bonkers for cows, and we've watched this video together several times now. If we ever move to Oregon, we're going to try to visit your farm.
Very docile, good, easy cows. Love these.
God bless the people who raise our food! Thanks, brother. Let us know how we can help or encourage you.
This kind of a farm isn’t where the majority of people are getting their food from- most dairy comes from massive factory farms where they treat the animals terribly!! Be are about what types of farms your dairy is coming from!😁😁
The way you feel about jerseys can only be described by someone who know jerseys they lovable and sweet I used to have my own and the pride to own them is a once in a lifetime feeling good job Sir
I really like hearing directly from people in our food production systems. Thank you for producing these.
The world needs more people like this, especially within a 100 miles of me so I can get some of that milk!
Wow I like people / farmers like you, as its real dairy farming and cow care. Very nice to see some people that have passion and care about animals. Nice video on how all farms should be in my eyes.
I drink about 5 gallons of raw (never pasteurized or homogenized) milk every week. It is sooooo full of nutrients. Here are three videos that I put up on youtube:
“#1 Best Ever Diet for Serious Acid Reflux and Barretts Esophagus”
“How to separate cream from raw milk”
“How to Make Butter in a Blender from Raw Milk”
That’s insane lol
11 years ago, I hope it all worked out for him and the girls. Those Jerseys are beautiful. I hope to have at least two cows by this time next year.
I know exactly how he feel after being raise on a farm, now own a Jersey & an 2 months old heifer, basically wanted a Jersey all my life so this is a dream come true. Love love the milk!
I wish you were close by! Blessings from Canada.
the cows are lovely ....... just love them
SO CUTE. He's so lucky to have those cows!
My fondest memories are of my family doing farm work... now I live in the city and.... :| It's just very different. Thanks for sharing the video.
+ your entire milk process is very good, the pasteurisation, the fact you don't agitate it... Very nice.
When I was young, there was a market for all-jersey milk. It was recommended that children be given all-jersey milk, because of the additional nutrients. Somewhere that seemed to have been forgotten. I still remember the bottles labeled "All-Jersey Milk" with the picture of a Jersey cow wearing a crown. At the top of the bottle was the "kiss" of cream. I'm glad to see all Jersey milk coming back. Nothing better for children.
Good on Gary Hansen for taking the risk the came along with everything in owning a business especially in the dairy industry
Im going to have jersey cows when i grow up :)
I’m Montagnard indigenous live in North Carolina I love animals I hope I have cows here to take care.
The video ended while he was almost mid-sentence. So, I was hoping that there was more. Glad to see there will be. Thanks.
очень круто!!! у нас тоже есть джерси! спасибо вам!!
Lovely jerseys, I have eight of them in my herd of Holsteins crosses and no breed surpasses this jersey. They are very easy to maintain like Garry said and allow me to add that they are the fastest maturing dairy breed.
My aunt Bridget has jerseys but I love all kinds of cows
Thanks, Jeremiah. Likewise!
watching this brings back great memories
The Jersey would have to be my favourite breed of cattle from the research I've done they seem to be very friendly & your video proves this even further, I also love It how you use voice commands to call your girls to the dairy not many farmers do this here In Australia they use quad bikes. I would have loved to get my own hobby farm with a jersey but due to disability & Illness I was not able to do this so whenever I get a chance to visit a farm I jump at the chance.
Give your girls a pat for me & keep up the fantastic work It was a very informative video.
Jerseys have such tender eyes.
Your milk is absolutely fantastic. I wish you all the best and never change this formula.
Cows are my favourite animals
The cows look very comfortable and happy, nothing like the abused animals a person sees in high tech factory farming, shown to us on the internet....
Can they survive in hot climate?
I love Jerseys (And Holsteins). Im showing a Jersey in my state fair that actually has a twin! Its adorable how close they are but when we walk them they get upset from being separated :( I also have a friend showing a different cow that starts mooing and crying everytime it cant see her. Its crazy how close of a bond they have.
Thanks
Beautiful cows!
I like Jersey cows. A kick from a Jersey is a little love tap compared to the bone-shattering crack from a craggy Friesian! Compulsory pasteurisation is a pain in the arse for boutique cheese makers and lovers of whole raw milk because it does destroy some of the milk's flavour. A way around it is to bottle some of your raw milk in the usual way and take it to the Farmers' Market, labelled "Pet Milk Not Intended For Human Consumption'. Your customers will know exactly what the product really is. And in this day and age of regular herd testing for TB and other diseases, chances of catching a debilitating disease from drinking milk raw are miniscule. Farming families and their friends have been doing just that for generations without a single case of milk-borne disease afflicting them. Cheers, Col, NZ.
lucky you! Hostein's used to be my favorite, but after spending time with jersey's - well, they won my heart over. =)
Jerseys are such pretty cows !
Sounds like you really love your girls. Kudos to you for not giving in iWork all of the challenges that the Dairy Industry places in small farmers!! If I were in your area, I would be buying your milk for sure! I live in Canada where milk has quota and prices do not change. I love the look of your farm and the passion you put into it!! Keep it up! People are moving more and more towards small and local. Thanks for educating. :)
There are loads of Jersey cows where I live. I buy my milk, and veal from one farmer here.
Hopefully you were referring to the preview at the very end (which is very short!), and yes, there is more tomorrow. Hate to think the video stopped mid-way for you…
Studies show that most of today's commercial dairy cows (Holstein) produce histidine, to which many with asthma and allergies negatively react, whereas old world cows (Jersey and Guernsey) do not produce histidine. I think an awareness campaign + marketing = Whole New Market. Do you know of anyone selling Jersey products in Madison, Wisconsin? I've searched the Net and spoken with farmers, associations, and a cheese buyer at Whole Foods, all to no avail. Thanks + best to you and your Ladies!
yes - and vice versa! Love that even his 'vacation' includes something to do with cows. =D
My favourite cow jarsey love u
we have a couple of jersey and they are amazing
The cows came when called. If it was so traumatic to the cows, then why do they run to him?
jerseys are so beautiful..... they look pretty with my lakenvelders!
Jersey cows is where chocolate milk comes from, that was my way of thinking when I was a little kid.
are they grass fed too? kudos to you!
Masha ALLAH.nice video bro
Mahalo for sharing
I'm just saying what i have found from documentaries and articles. All i know is from what i found is that factory farmed dairy cows are used for meat when they get too old or are too sick to stand.
It is true that older non milk productive or lame cows are given a new purpose. This is normal in the animal world. Look at the wild animals, the older or weak are harvested by the lion or wolf. It is normal.
Congrats
In tomorrow's video Hansen will talk about the different types of pasteurization processes. Does that answer your question? Or were you looking for something more?
hi. I love jersey cows .
how can I get my own jersey.plz tell me
Are you located in Canada ? Wish to buy some if you have any on sale
Have you ever dealt with Brahman cows? They're awesome.
Respect
Where is you beautiful farm located. I would love to see your amazing animals.
good and clean job respect
Sorry for typos...on my iPhone.
good work bro
How much liters of milk per day one Jersey cow produce ?
milks of jersy cows is the best
How much do you sell a Jersey heifer calf for?
How can I get contact with this farmer?
Dairy cows aren't used for beef most of the time. As you can see they look completely different from beef cows because they have less meat on their bones.,,
too bad you cant sell raw in oregon. :( my wife works at a raw jersey milk dairy here in washington. theres nothing cuter than jersey calves
on-farm sales of raw milk are allowed in Oregon but these raw milk dairy farmers were not allowed to advertise their product. Just this month efforts to change that stipulation were made via a lawsuit by raw milk dairy farmer. You can read more about it here: www.oregonlive.com/health/index.ssf/2014/02/raw_milk_dairy_farmer_in_orego.html
Food Farmer Earth excellent!
do Jersey cows meat taste good? or are they more of a milking cow? I'm not very knowledgeable about farming.
It is definitely a dairy cow, but discovered (via a cattle forum) the steers can be raised for meat and several said they tasted good.
Yes! Jesery beef tastes great. IF well raised, properly finished and processed, of course. Long out of favor due to the yellow color of the fat, they taste like... beef!
It's nice actually, the fat is unusually yellow though (I'm from Jersey and was a butcher), even better is Jersey Angus beef :)
awesome cows
and very sweet too. =)
jerseys are the best lol
Is there going to be a part 2?
Sir
How much fat in Jersey cow milk.
Please .
Is that one Holstein Friesian in the background. Couldn’t get a clear view. Is it a bull ?
Correction: 'non-homogenized'. Homoginisation breaks up the fat particles so the cream will not rise to the top. The un-natural fat particles that result can cross the gut wall inact, without having been digested first, which can lead to health issues.
what happens to the bull calves?
They are bred😊
Butchered.....
butchered for beef or butcherd for getting rid of them...?
Either bred or butchered for beef.
Lot of places sell them as calf's to raise on a bottle
Do Jersey Cow's produce A1 or A2 Casein?
a1
k.s. Ranjith
You sure about that, I have heard they produce A2, but not 100% sure.
Both. A cow of any breed can be either A1 A1 or A1 A2 or A2 A2. An a2 a2 cow will give a2 milk
BA most of them are A2/A2....I believe 60% are. Guernsey cows are 98% A2/A....Holsteins are primarily A1/A1 or A1/A2....there's a simple, cheap test that can be done to determine genetics
sorry, you didn't put any periods or comas so didn't quite get it....
Sir, will i be able to get cement
Same is my situation but with dairy buffaloes.
Jersey cattle.🏀🐄🥤💙
Дневник Казачки пусть посмотрит на Джерси.
Where can i get this type of cows because cows I love Jerseys cows
Where’s the bull?
I'd say he relies on artificial insemination. Jersey bulls are very dangerous and why waste precious pasture feeding something you only need once a year? Plus you get the best genetics and can select for traits you want in your herd.
sir can I use some scenes from your film for my documentary , I am not earning any money from my documentary , it is about india's abandoned animal cow , I just want to show how animals are being cared in other nations , I will wait for your reply
rajinder Singh this is one of the rare good farmers here. There's MANY terrible factory farms here as well.
rajinder Singh it's amazing that you're making a documentary like that
Where do the bulls hang about
I like famer working
Nice cows
The system is goog
good movie
Hi Ian from Morocco
If you do not let heifers to get pregnant until they are 3 years old they willl have strong carcasses and leave healthy and productive life
Thank you
Jassi bread and best cow
what does me knowing anything about cow breeds half to do with how the cows are treated in factory farms???
I get such a kick watching the vegans argue with flawed, biased, generalized points. lol
Like what?
A shame to have to cook that milk before they can sell it; definatley not 'natural', but this type of pasturization is better than the 'flash' or ultra-pasturized methods. Non-momgenized is good too - but if people ever get the chance to drink 'fresh squeezed Jersey juice' bottled in glass... they may never be able to drink that stuff in the plastic cartons at the store ever again. (Those plastic cartons transfer synthetic chemicals to the milk. Don't take my word for it, check it out for yourselves, people.)
that means absolutely nothing!
Any truth to the rumour that Jersey cattle suffer from milk fever and ketosis more than other breeds of dairy cattle? Berst way to prevent or cure?
We have had 12 on our homestead over the past 10 years. Only 1 ever had milk fever .. I'm not saying we are the normal but in our experience 1 out of 12 isn't bad
How did you solve the problem?
@@kl1958 check your fresh cow often, watch for changes. When I noticed her lie down and turn her head back to her stomach I became alert to a change. As it progressed I checked for cold body/ ears. When milk fever was decided to be the cause my husband gave the cow an IV of calcium (once we were half way through the bottle she began to shake uncontrollably, moments later she stood.. We then gave her a homemade electolytes mixture & within 4 days she was able to nurse her calf. Within 1 1/2 weeks she was giving us milk.
I want to taste that milk
HMMMMM!!! old guy here.... I'd like to add to your info!!! When training Anything to lead, cows included... It's !00% about the pressure you put on the rope and WHEN you release it !! You will succeed very quickly IF... When they pull, the pressure is maintained steady and they get NO "reward" (or release of pressure).... BUT !!!! if the animal steps towards the pressure it is VERY IMPORTANT that the pressure is instantly released! (as a reward) Watch their feet VERY closely! The instant you see the intent to step forward slack the rope!! and afirm with your "low calm gentle voice" gooood girl... after a short wait... "come cow" and gently increasing pressure, watching the feet VERY CLOSELY for an instant release when she gives to the pressure. WHY would she lead if it makes no difference to the pressure??? In time if you gently waggle the rope "come cow" and walk... you wont need to pull at all.. IF she pulls maintain steady firm pressure and use your "angry voice" AAAHHHH!! until she stops.. then ease pressure a bit not completely and change voices "come cow" and watch the feet.... lessons should be short and not more than 15 mins and definitely end on a positive win... good girl off you go!! pat pat! Your welcome!
Became ecologic :)
The creamiest milk
