Alberta Agriculture and Forestry is once again offering the Dairy Cost Study program to Alberta producers.

The study is similar to the Agri-Profits program but offers business analysis for just the dairying aspect of the farm. This includes total costs, costs per cow, and costs per hectolitre sold. Data is used to create provincial averages, or benchmarks.

“Producers participating in the program tell us that they have become more effective at analyzing, budgeting and planning, and that they are making better management decisions,” said research analyst Pauline Van Biert.
