Iowa dairy output near record despite shortages
Iowa dairy production remained near a record level despite feed and labor shortages. Leslie M. Carl notes 1944’s crisis years, with milk contributing 7 to 10 percent of farm cash income and some counties deriving up to 23 percent from milk. Herds grew earlier but face labor limits and a 1945–46 contraction in cows. average production per cow rose and potential exists to lift total output by nearly a quarter with no more cows.
