Cow and the Sea

Açores

Dairy farming and beef production are the main agricultural activities in the Azores. Some say that the cows of São Miguel are the happiest in the world. They graze freely in an extensive system on the island’s green fields, with views of the sea, and with minimal environmental impact. The cow is an integral part of the São Miguel landscape.
