A detailed look at cow testing associations explains how groups of farmers hire a tester to weigh and record milk production fat content and feed costs for each cow. The tester computes monthly profitability per cow and per pound of milk, helps select seeds and rations, and offers breeding and management suggestions with owner approval.
