Government standard for whole milk is like the government standard for a 2x4. It's a consistent 3.25%, but it's not "whole." We used to have our milk tested for butterfat content on a monthly basis. The dairy paid us based on the butterfat content. Our Holsteins produced 3.5 to 4% butterfat, depending on the time of year. We had a Guernsey who produced fatter milk, but we kept it, so we never had it tested.
