Chapter 11 in Agricultural Policies in Europe and the USA, 2001, pp 162-179 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The dairy sector is basic to European agriculture. There are in Europe about a million dairy farms which produce almost 120 million tons of milk and this accounts for about 20 per cent of the gross value of farm output, varying between a maximum of 40 per cent in areas most suitable for livestock to as low as 10 per cent in less suitable areas.
