Cow Census Shows Dairy Herd Profits From Reading Hoards
A long feature extols Hoard's Dairyman and its cow census method. It traces how tracking herd data from 100 herds across northeast Iowa improves milk profits, with 1062 cows, dual purpose versus dairy types, and the impact of reading dairy papers on net return. It notes higher profits where patrons read dairy literature and lower returns where reading is absent.
