Better cows key to higher dairy prices says Purdue expert

Lafayette Indiana. G A Williams ex extension dairyman at Purdue University argues that improving cows rather than increasing herd size boosts milk output. Dropping the lowest producers raised milk per cow by 785 pounds in one trio of herds and 1663 pounds when the two lowest were omitted, with potential 2698 pounds if all three lowest were removed. Low producers are costly and underperform, and cows producing under 6000 to 7000 pounds of milk are unlikely money-makers today.
