How Dutch Gouda Cheese Is Made On A 150-Year-Old Family Farm | Big Business


The tiny country of the Netherlands is one of the biggest exporters of cheese in the world. Today, dairy employs 45,000 people, and the famous Gouda cheese earns the country $1.2 billion. Milk and cheese farmers are so important, they’re even credited with helping shape the country’s landscape. But now Dutch dairy is at the center of a…

  1. Thank you for this video – it is very well made and easy to watch. I would just like to add it would be nice to this video skip the politics (section of the video) blaming the farmers and their cow's for 'environmental problems' which I'm sure can be fixed some other creative way, that their government won't research and help them figure out. Nope, these brother-owner's are likely clobbered with regulations from their government.

  2. 7 generations of cheese making. 200 years of cheesemaking, and law and behold shit goes sideways in the last 20 years when the "climate change" happens. Climate change has to be the biggest bullshit capitalism has invented to earn money off of.

  3. So if the Dutch government and the EU were to close down all those farms, then where will they get their dairy and meat? Don't tell me they'll just surprisepikachu.jpg, wondering why everything got even more expensive at the grocery store.

  4. When I think of LA and it's pollution it's definitely all that spralling farmland that comes to mind. Nothing else. Definitely not highways that are effectively parking lots or jets flying to local airports… Definitely all that farmland.

  5. Cows and humans have no impact on weather.El Nino is the on thing that is affecting are environment,for smart people that have done the science that proves goble warming bullshit.

  6. I'm British, and very Pro EU. But I will be the first to admit, the EU and its legislation is far from perfect, and what it is expecting from Farmers today is completely unreasonable. If there are no farmers, there is no food. And I completely understand why farmers are protesting against EU leglistation.

  7. 🤯😭🤯😭🤯😭🤯 Food is necessary and the Netherlands has not much of nature when there is a country that can sacrifice the little bit of nature is the Nether when you think globally is the best solution that Netherlands dus his ting that's my opinion please let me know how you think about it ✌️ 🤓🤓🤓

  8. One thing that i have been told by my culture (no offence): bulls were used to work the farm and cows for milk. I dont see any full fledged farms other than grasslands, which disturbs the ecology. The nitrogen affected areas can be reversed with full fledged crop farming like ancient times. Kindly comment for further discussions, let us help farmers from buy outs

  9. Go Dutch Farmers! 💪🇳🇱
    Scientist will figure it out. They’ve already reduced “harmful” emissions tremendously.
    But it’s never fast enough for the wacky environmentalists who would rather shut down humans means of making a living than see one tree or one snail not living in the lap of luxury. 🇺🇸

  10. I visited the Netherlands over a decade ago and they had the BEST food I have EVER tasted! I believe their farmers should be prized for what they produce….not punished. Many people believe it's the diet of the cows that is causing this problem. They need to feed on strictly grasses….not soya.

  11. I can see people are not keeping good care of cows, keeping them in confined narrow place while grazing & milking will lower the milk Yield.. because production of milk is directly related to the happiness of cows. Its not just diet but also how you keep cows. A happy cow with good natural diet & habitat produces more milk than a commercialised cow who is there just to give business. I dont see there any love or care factor between farmers & cows. You need to keep them like your pets, not like Gold digger!!!!!! Just love & take good care of them, in return you will be automatically blessed with growth…for us, they are sacred animals not just milk giving machine! From: India
