fresh locally produced whole raw milk

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

I imagine this is just a starting point - sounds like a passion project at the moment that could grow into an earner.

Not with that kind of cows. If they give milk at all then it's not more than 2 liters a day.

First you have to import proper cows that give 40 to 50 liters a day, and I'm not sure whether they will survive the Cambodian climate.

You mean something like this ? :

Can they survive in this tropical climate ? Northern Thailand probably yes, but in the typical Cambodian heat ??? Really, I've got no idea. Anyway, I wish that everything is going to work out positively for you.

Really? I would have thought they'd be more sensitive to heat than Holsteins...

no, they are good doers in the tropics, some old stories have it that a ship with indian cattle was wrecked there and the accidental bos indicus infusion created something special.

Sure, sounds good. Not sure Mrs S would have ever tried fresh full cream milk.
