FANTASTIC!
That's the verdict of TV vet Trude Mostue who called into Belfast's Castle Court to boost the Pure Northern Ireland Dairy Produce campaign.
This Dairy Council campaign promotes pride in an industry which supports 10,000 jobs and is worth £600 million to the Ulster economy.
In previous years our exports were most £340 million. Over the last 10 years, the industry has invested heavily to bring us to the stage where our products are the best in the world.
We are the only region in the European Union that publishes the quality of our milk - which is actually six times higher than the current standards. Pizza Hut sources all its cheese for its European operation in Northern Ireland and that's because of the quality.
Trude, star of Vets in Practice, praised the standard of animal care in the Province. "Before studing to become a vet, I spent six months as a herdswoman milking 200 cows twice a day. In Norway, the cattle are kept in stalls during the winter whereas here they are allowed more freedom. That is better for them and better for the milk they produce".
