Unproductive Cows Raise Costs Versus Milk Prices
A study led by Ohio State University extension dairy science records specialist Bob Porter shows producing 100 pounds of milk costs 14.86 dollars with a 10 090 pound per cow annual yield but only 11.93 dollars per 100 pounds with a 16 000 pound yield. The average Grade A milk price this year sits around 13.50 dollars per 100 pounds, implying the 10 000 pound herd is unprofitable when all costs are included.
