On Friday, October 4 from 12-1 p.m., we’re hosting our monthly “Protecting Your Profits” webinar titled “Where Does PA Stand? Annual Dairy Performance Indicators” with guest speaker Rob Goodling from Horizon Farm Credit. Rob Goodling will share key takeaways and data points that have been identified through 17 key benchmarks calculated from Pennsylvania dairy farm data. These annual benchmarks compare individual dairy operations to how the top dairies in the data set are performing financially from year to year through the annual PA Dairy Performance Indicator Project. The 2023 data that Rob will share provides a comprehensive snapshot of herd performance across various sizes and production types, revealing distinct patterns in milk production, costs, and financial outcomes.
We will also examine how herds participating in both years compared to the group averages, and dive into some of the variation between herd size groups.
You can join via conference call, webinar, or podcast format. A recording will be shared after the event.
