The Nafferton Ecological Farming Group study finds that grazing cows on organic farms in the UK produce milk which contains significantly higher beneficial fatty acids, antioxidants and vitamins than their conventional \u201d\u02dchigh input\u2019 counterparts. During the summer months, one of the beneficial fats in particular \u2014 conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA9 \u2014 is found to be 60% higher.&#8221;We have known for some time that what cows are fed has a big influence on milk quality,&#8221; explained Gillian Butler, livestock project manager for the Nafferton Ecological Farming Group at Newcastle University, who led the study. &#8220;What is different about this research is it clearly shows that on organic farms, letting cows graze naturally, using forage-based diet, is the most important reason for the differences in the composition between organic and conventional milk.&#8220;We\u2019ve shown that significant seasonal differences exist, with nutritionally desirable fatty acids and antioxidants being highest during the summer, when the cows are eating fresh grass and clover.&#8221; &#8220;As a result, our [&hellip;]"}
