Farmers often think they
receive a low hourly wage for
farm work. In reality, it depends
on what work is done during the
hour. Changing the oil in the trac
tor is very important but does not
pay well.
Planning and managing the
farm is executive work and earns
executive pay. As an example, lets
assume a goal of increasing milk
production 3 pounds per day in a
Hie Grovel Mans Candv Store.

FOCUS
60 cow herd is set. That approxi
mates 1000 pounds per lactation.
Suppose a dairy farmer spent 5
hours comparing his lactation
records with DHIA herds having
1000 pounds higher rolling herd
average and spotted a nutritional
problem. Further, finding this one
weak link raises the farm’s milk
production 3 pounds per day. With
a 60 cow herd, milk priced at
$12.00 per hundred weights, and
feed costs equal to one half the
cost of production, the hourly
wage to the DHIA record analyzer
would be 1000 pounds of milk
