It is not uncommon in Europe for cows to feed mainly on grass. We don't have the corn lobby (we have other ones instead).

- wobbleblob 11y agoI don't know about the 'mainly' part. North of the Alps, the grass only grows in the summer, south of the Alps, it only grows in spring and fall. If their cows fed only or mainly on grass, dairy pastures could only support small herds, and dairy would be a very expensive luxury item.
