Unfortunately, I don't know much about dairy farms in general. But I am familiar with a local dairy farmer's operation. And while I'm not a fan of huge corporate anything, I must say this dairy's operation seems quite animal friendly. I have personally witnessed their daily concern over their cows well-being.
The cows seem eager to come at milking time and are out to pasture most of the day. I'm not positive but I think they rotate the milking.
The cows all seem healthy and happy [although I'm not exactly sure how to determine a happy cow *wink*] well nourished and not weak in the least.
I'm not trying to defend anything in particular. Just saying that everyone has different ways of doing things, including large scale farmers.
