Problems facing dairy farming in Denmark

  Cattle diseases like mastitis, paratuberculosis, salmonella Dublin, and lameness are common in Denmark. However the degree of disease incidences is not as high as it is in Kenya. Occasional drought spells affect milk production in Denmark. Dairy animals produce a lot of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane from the cow dung. This pollutes the environment. The extreme cold winters affect the growth of natural pastures causing animals to be kept and fed indoors which is quite expensive.
