Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The five New England Federal order markets were chosen for study. The first month for which producer records were available in all of these markets was April 1959. The three-year period July 1, 1959, to June 30, 1962, was selected. The objectives stated at the beginning of the study were: 1. To describe the variations in patterns of annual production among individual New England milk producers. To describe the annual production changes from year to year of individual producers. 2. To describe the variations among individual New England milk producers in seasonal patterns of production and the variation of individual producers in their own seasonal patterns from year to year. To describe the variations in seasonal patterns for groups of producers within a larger group, and the variation in seasonal pattern from year to year for the same producers. 3. To determine the number and characteristics of farms leaving New England milk markets and the number and characteristics of farms shifting among New England milk markets.
