I just wish they'd bottle some sweet cream... or at least half-and-half. :rolleyes:

That foto was taken in Maneadero. It could mean anything....or nothing. :yes:

Those same cows are hanging out at the Jersey milk place in Rosarito Beach- right on the fourth toll road exit mid-town. Plastic cows on the moooo-ve.

Oh....Maybe the first foto was taken in SQ and not Maneadero as Woody mentioned?????

The brand Jersey was created over 80yrs ago, if they use Holsteins NOW it means nothing.

Say isn't there a dairy, at the junction of the old road into TJ and Toll road... it would be located on the west side of the old road .. ?

Saw what appeared to be milking shed and a couple of vertical tanks..

Never stopped and looked closely... just used the Google Earth, but couldn't see pole barns for feed... but, could see feeding troughs and a few animals...

Maybe a feed lot.. .but not sure..

It's a feed lot (Sorta)

The dairy is located south of Rosarito at the exit for Medio Camino. East side of the toll road

You can smell it from the Toll Road. Charming place for a new RE development. :lol:

Not Exactly Correct But Close

Holsteins are larger animals and produce much more milk than do Jerseys.

A typical Holstein cow will produce about 19,000 pounds of milk over its lifetime, with a butterfat of about 3.7% (lowest among common cow breeds in the U.S.)

A Jersey cow, on the other hand, will produce only about 13,000 pounds of milk, but with a buttefat of about 4.7%, which is the highest among common breeds.

Cross-breeding used to be frowned upon, but a couple of web sites I found in researching this question claim that organic dairy farmers are beginning to prize Holstein-Jersey hybrids. A Holstein sire and Jersey heifer cross apparently produces a hybrid with the best characteristics of each breed. According to this web site, for one: http://organic.lovetoknow.com/Organic_Holstein_Jersey_Heifer...

Has been very responsive to complaints from new (cough, gringo gated community) residents.

They are not obligated to do anything about "smells", but they do try to respond.

In the last ten years, the ocean pollution runoff and fly bloom have decreased signifcantly.

They are a good neighbor and if you are in the area, you might want to dirive up to take a look at the beautiful, fantastical park/playground and bungalows that they have built for their employees.

At one point, a few years ago, they were also home for the world's oldest living man. He rode with Pancho Villa and spent his last years (died at 112) being reverently cared for at the Jersey Dairy complex.

Jan....it seems you are becoming an apologist for negatives in your area.
Are you being paid?
Your motives seem to be generated by the city of Rosarito rather than concerns of a more pressing reality...those of victims of crime or circumstances.
I don't think you sell realestate, but I believe you pimp restaurants in your area. Is that an accurate assesment?
Would it be contrary to your interests to admit that you live in a cesspool of blood and body parts?
I'm betting it would.
Your comment on the obligations of the dairy are unbecoming of you or anyone else who isn't victimized by it. If you had to breathe it day after day, you may be more sympathetic, but.....you don't. Instead, you champion the right of the dairy to defile the air we breathe.
What is this loyalty to corruption worth to you?
Perhaps you and your turncoat type are the new Cartel.

tiotomasbcs - 4-13-2011 at 06:54 PM

An in depth question and very graphic?! Blood and body parts make me think Dennis has witnessed such crimes. Viet Nam or late nite movies? I hear the Tiger Woods Jersey Dairy may expand from Maneadero to Punta Banda? Milk with Sea Salt with a touch of Corralejo!:lol: Go gettum Gypsy, you Turncoat? Let's all sing a Donovan song! Easy, Tio

Apologist for Negatives?

"I love the smell of cow s*** in the morning."

(Edited to work in a Martin Sheen shout-out. Sorry, Charlie, if you are reading this, I apologize for taking shameless advantage of your own obsession with "Apocalypse Now")

It reminds me of good times in my childhood.

Am I being paid? HA HA HA HA!

The jefe at Jersey most probably doesn't like me very much at all, if he even knows about me.

When the drain to the ocean burst and there was a 24-foot fountain of liquid cow manure shooting in the air, I took pictures and published it. They spent a lot of money and time redoing the drain structure on the property.

Also, years ago, I spent a lot of high profile time on their property trying to catch a feral Great Dane. The jefe called the cops and the dog was shot. I found the brass and blood on the road. They had already removed the body.

So, I know the negative, but feel called upon to report the positive.

Funny you said you like the smell of cows Jan.


When I was in grade school....each year there be a field trip to the Woodruff Diary in Arcadia. The smell of cows always takes me back 45 years

How do you tell the difference between Jersey milk and Holstein milk???????


Take a bucket and throw a silver dollar in it.

If the milk covers the silver dollar and you can't see the dollar, it is a Jersey.

If the milk fills the bucket and you can see the silver dollar, it is a Holstein.

At least that was the way in 1945!!!!!

I've toured the Jersey Dairy processing plant in Tijuana, it was very interesting and very clean.
