Well there is an answer. Cows produce milk. Some percent of milk is butterfat or cream. Skim milk has less butterfat then 1% which has less then 2% etc. Holstien cows produce about 50% more milk then Gurenseys or Jersys. Think Black cow vs Brown cows. However buttterfat or cream in the cows that produce less milk is much much higher. We had Gurensey cows that would produce 50% cream. So whats a farmer to do. They either have or buy the right amount of higher cream content milk to mix with the lower % content milk to make the various types of milk sold. So if I make 1% milk I have to get less of the higher cream content milk from the lower producing cows then if make 2% or whole milk. So you can blame the cow. Or think cream. Which is higher priced. The more I can remove to sell as cream the less I can set the milk price.
