Index. "The dairy farm business is one of the largest sub-industries of the whole agricultural process, generating revenues worth $500 billion world-wide.

Involving the production of milk, butter, cheese and other milk products using livestock and milk processing technologies, dairy farm business management entails a whole deal of practices which are pertinent to the whole process of dairying as an ever growing industry, especially considering the fact that the demand for milk products has reached an all-time high. The present book goes beyond the conventional discussion of dairying as a farm (less)
