The reduction in revenue is primarily due to the increase in the cost of feed for dairy cows. "In the north, good rainfall helped farmers to increase the production of milk powder and 192 kg per hectare and reduce production costs by 10%. In the south-west of Australia drought led to an increase of production costs by 12% as farmers spent more on the purchase of food and labor costs, "- said Ian Halliday, Managing Director of Dairy Australia. In connection with the situation Dairy Australia will develop a program to increase the efficiency of milk production.
