Abstract: Excerpts from the report: This report provides information for dairy farmers considering the construction of on-the-farm milk processing plants built in conjunction with production operations. The study includes a detailed description of a new on-the-farm milk processing plant built in conjunction with an existing production operation. Layouts show the arrangement of the individual plant areas and equipment and the other facilities on a building site. The estimated initial investment, annual ownership and operating cost, and potential benefits are determined for the new plant, including the minimum production required for a profitable operation.
