Floor Plans for Small Cooperative Dairy Plants

No 334665, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpt from the report: During recent years there has been a great increase in the volume of products handled by farmers' cooperative dairy associations and many of them are enlarging their plants or are building or planning to build new plants to handle the increased business. Another trend, accelerated by war conditions, has been the organization of cooperative pasteurizing and retailing associations, mostly of producer-distributors in the southern areas of the country. They all want or will want new plants. The Cooperative Research and Service Division has had numerous calls to help in planning the remodeling of plants and the arrangement of floor plans for new plants. To meet these service calls, in part at least, blueprints have been collected and copied and several floor plans have been drawn based on combinations of the better features shown. These have been prepared for distribution to interested persons and associations. These plans are all for comparatively small plants, as large associations usually employ their own capable architectural and engineering services.
