Evolution of the number of dairy cows in France
Here is a graph and a table which show the evolution of the herd of dairy cows in France between 1980 and 2022. As we can see, the number of dairy cows is constantly decreasing. The population of these cattle has been halved in forty years.
Despite this, milk production remains essentially the same, with milk delivery evolving between 22 and 24 billion liters per year.
