Studies in costs of production town milk supply farms 1975-76

Abstract

This Report is the third in the annual series of cost of production surveys on New Zealand town milk supply farms. The surveys are being undertaken by the Unit on a contract basis for the New Zealand Milk Board and the Town Milk Producers Federation of New Zealand (Inc). As in the past the major objective of the surveys is to determine the average net farm income being received by town milk producers in New Zealand. Nevertheless the opportunity provided by the surveys has been used to collect additional data so that over a period of time a more comprehensive profile of the industry will be built up.
