Dairy suppliers in a Moscow suburb (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cows

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dairy suppliers' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'in a moscow suburb' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'COWS' is hidden in the letters of 'moscow suburb'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cows that I've seen before include "Kine" , "Domesticated bovine animals" , "Female bovines" , "Farm animals" , "Milk providers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
