14.   Beyond the losses in milk production are larger economic losses in the community.

15.   A tough winter and high-priced feed depressed milk production last year, while this year the winter was mild and feed prices have been low.

16.   About a third of American dairy cows have their milk production increased by treatment with a hormone made in genetically modified bacteria.

17.   BST, or bovine somatotropin, was launched on the market in February to help increase milk production.

18.   British scientists suspect that the soothing bleat of Simon LeBon and company is just the sort of aural stimulation needed to boost milk production.

19.   But they needed to find something to subsidize the milk production.

20.   Consider how Coelho advised Monsanto on its struggle to win approval for the genetically engineered hormone, bovine somatotropin, which enhances the milk production of cows.
