The conditions for dairy farming in Denmark are excellent. The mild climate during spring and summer combined with a lot of rain and very fertile soil are ideal factors for dairy cattle.

The efficiency, experience and expertise of Danish farmers place Denmark among the world's five largest exporters of butter and cheese.

The production of healthy products of high quality has always been the target. In order to ensure products of uniform quality, production is under government control and based on very strict legislation.

Denmark, for instance, was the first country in the world to eradicate bovine tuberculosis as well as contagious bovine abortion and in 1986 a comprehensive program was initiated with the aim of completely eradicating the viral disease IBR.
