Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of the above

Dairy animals like any other animals reared in animal-based farming, require maintenance in the form of basic nutrition, clean water, and clean environmental conditions to sustain long and healthy life and for good quality products. The dairy animals also have special requirements as the process of lactation is very energy consuming and the diet of the animal reflects in the milk of the animal.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
