Things I Learned From Knitting (2008)
“I STARED AT THE TV. I WAS STUNNED. There’s this rancher in Cuba, Raul Hernandez, who’s worked his arse off inbreeding cows until he has finally arrived at what he wants. After carefully selecting cows that have the qualities he desires, then breeding them and selecting the most promising of their offspring, and then breeding the offspring, he’s finally managed to produce — get this — vacas de patio. Translated from the Spanish, that’s “patio cows.”
These cows are being bred for their teeniness,... and now this rancher has cows that stand only a miniscule 23 to 28 inches tall. These dog-sized cows eat grass and weeds, and theoretically, you could keep one on your patio or in your backyard and it will produce about 4 quarts of milk a day, depending on the patio cow in question. That’s a lovely supply of milk for a family. Raul was talking about how they could supply fresh, organic dairy to families who don’t have access to a store and don’t necessarily have the resources or the desire to manage cattle.MoreLess
