Greetings,
I am not a scientist, but I do know a legal raw milk dairy that is 100%
grass fed and they do not use any fancy genetics.  They bought their cow
from the same commercial dairy that I bought mine from and she is now
100% grass fed.  They are all Jersey cows.  We do use alfalfa hay in
addition to quality grass and horse hay, but no grain.  Their farm is
www.sandcreekfarm.net <http://www.sandcreekfarm.net/>   It is probably
much easier to feed grain, but it is not necessary.  Also, we do not use
chemicals.  Lots of compost and compost tea gives real good hay.
Bright Blessings,
Kim
