Cousins shows 14 pure bred herds near Perth and districts produced 629 gallons of milk and 295.1 lb of butter fat at 1/8 per lb, yielding a gross profit after feed costs of £12/15/2. Milk value would raise gross profit to £18/5/9, with herd milk averages from 945 to 358 gallons and fat from 377.70 lb to 206.3 lb. Feed costs per cow for nine months averaged £5 5s, with varied feeding costs, pasture and hay pricing, and notable efficiency differences between herds. The report stresses growing most feed on the farm to improve butter fat economics and cautions against expensive bought feeds.
