Dairy Benchmarking

Today’s dairy industry is more challenging and complex than ever.

The Large Dairy Benchmark Program provides financial and dairy records analysis for dairy producers of progressive dairy farms who want to fully understand the strengths and weaknesses of their operations and see how they compare with their peers.

An informative participants meeting will help you interpret and understand the results in your farm report. This meeting will also review benchmark results compiled from all participating farms, and you will receive personalized help to develop an action plan for your operation.

Dairy Profit Analyzer

Dairy producers not only need to make good decisions, they also need to make those decisions on a timely basis. Milk prices and input costs are always on the move, making it difficult to consistently make decisions that provide the right impact on profits.

Track up-to-date production and financial performance throughout the year, and make timely decisions to improve performance.
