Post #4: Let's talk about dairy!

Hoozah! We 6th graders, from both classes Lauan and Almaciga, finally had a field trip to UBLB or University of the Philippines, Los Baños! We were able to visit five destinations when we were there. We had a field trip to UP Los Baños so we could learn about certain plants and animals. Some of which are found here, in the Philippines, and some are found in other countries. We, group 3, had a lot of expectations for the field trip. A few of those expectations being: to learn lots of new things about plants, to learn lots of new things about animals, and to have loads of fun! Even before we left for UPLB, we were already looking forward to learning lots of new stuff!

Now, from the 5 destinations we were able to visit, in this post, we will be talking about the first one that we were able to visit- The Dairy Training and Research Institute (DTRI.) 

Our group, the third group, expected to learn more about milk and how to milk a cow/cattle properly. And our expectations have not been overlooked! We did learn about milk and how to milk a cow/cattle properly! We now know that we must massage the udder before milking it. Also, we learned that when you milk a cow, it can give about two liters of milk.

These is what cows eat like sugar cane and stuff that are nutritious to their health and that helps them become big and strong.
