Survey results will be published in the milk production report to be released on Oct. 20.
The agency will mail the questionnaires to all producers selected for the survey in late September. To ensure all survey participants have an opportunity to respond, agency interviewers will contact producers who do not respond by mail or online to conduct interviews.
The agency’s Northeastern Regional Field Office conducts the milk production survey in the region every January, April, July and October. The survey asks milk producers to provide the number of milk cows in the herd, number of cows milked, and total milk production for the first day of the month.
