If you were to map the path of a single drop of water on a dairy farm, you would see a complex journey – one that’s essential to maintaining cows’ health, and the planet’s. Dairy farmers don't take an ounce of it for granted.

Whether used to clean milking equipment, keep cows hydrated, or grow crops, farmers across the United States work with local communities and researchers to continually maximize their operations’ H2O. That’s more than 26,000 U.S. dairy farm families who innovate to operate. Whether in California or Pennsylvania, most dairies recycle their water as many as four times, including a final stop on the crops.
