Drinking cow’s milk is becoming less important for Thai people, this may affect dairy farmers. One of the main reasons is people don’t see the need to drink cow’s milk and are not confident in the source of production. The dairy farming system in Thailand is mostly caged and stand-alone farming systems. This will greatly affect the physical and mental health of the cows. Leading to, the quantity and quality of milk is not as effective as it should be. Dairy Farming Promotion Organization of Thailand is the first organization that is interested in training, promoting, educating farmers to have a stable career in the future and wanting Thais and foreigners to realize the value and benefits of cow’s milk. Therefore, the organization is researching about the organic farming which give cows freedom to graze and to make the cow happy. It will lead to best quality products. The dairy factory area in Pranburi, Prachuap Khiri Khan has the appropriate location and context. There is a high possibility to develop into a dairy farming learning center.
