Why is there a great demand for dairy products in western Europe?

This is related to their eating habits.

Western Europeans' eating habits with high-fat meat and milk as their main foods have long been formed. As early as the formation of the slave city-state in ancient Greece, the Greeks formed such eating habits. It is enough to prove this problem that we only quote a piece of material reflecting the diet of farmers at that time. Because farmers mainly cultivate land, but also meat and milk, especially people in other industries. At that time, attiya farmer Hissiad said in his Heavenly Farming: "On this annoying hot day, ... I want to find a shady rock wall, hold Bebrice's wine, a frozen piece of meat, milk from a suckling sheep, the meat of a heifer who hasn't calved in the forest, and the meat of a newborn lamb, and then sit in the shade and drink wine until I am drunk."

Take the traditional English breakfast as an example.

Fruit juice, buttered toast, two eggs, fried bacon, fried ham, fried sausage, sausage, fried mushrooms, baked tomatoes, potato cakes and boiled beans-this is the usual standard equipment for an orthodox English breakfast; Of course, you must bring a whole pot of hot English breakfast tea, which has a rich aroma of milk tea!

A typical English morning is soaked in cold and cold. When my body and stomach are empty and hungry, I have such a meal. The wonderful feeling of heaviness, fullness and warmth from taste buds to body and mind is no longer said, and my mouth is watering.

Most of them are made of dairy products.

Generally speaking, the climate in western Europe is cool and humid, rainy and foggy, and there is little sunshine, which is conducive to the growth of juicy pastures. This climate is suitable for the development of dairy farming, and it has formed the eating habits of Europeans with high-fat and high-calorie foods such as meat and milk. With the development of economy, the level of urbanization in Europe is high, and the milk consumption demand of urban residents is great.

The circulation, production and management of dairy industry are characterized by high commodity rate and mechanization. Milk is mainly produced around big cities, and dairy products are mainly produced in areas far away from cities.
