    Dairy cows are slaughtered for meat once they’re no longer productive enough anyway, aren’t they? Either way they’re going to die.

      There’s a massive difference between being killed for meat and being killed because it’s too expensive to maintain them. We’re talking thousands of tons of meat going to waste, not a dairy cow being killed at the end of its productivity.
