Selecting a Treatment Technology for Manure Management | Animal manure has been used for centuries as a fertilizer and a soil builder because it contains nutrients and organic matter. However, as animal production shifts toward fewer but larger operations, the number of confined animals has increased in some geographical locations, resulting in more manure produced than can be assimilated by the available farmland where the animals are raised. |

A Decision-Making Tool to Determine the Feasibility of Purchasing Virginia Milk Commission Base | Dairy farmers are usually subject to net income fluctuations
due to volatility in both milk and feed prices.
Risk management tools, such as hedging milk prices in
the futures market, may be used to protect dairy farmers
against milk price volatility. Alternatively, dairy
farmers selling milk in Virginia can buy Virginia milk
commission base (MCB) to obtain higher milk prices
and, therefore, sustain or increase net cash flows. |

Income Over Feed Costs in the Dairy Enterprise | Typically, feed costs are directly related to milk
production, so the more you feed, the more you
produce. However, milk production is not necessarily
related to profitability. Production-oriented
management, which focuses on maximizing outputs
(i.e., milk yield) through increased utilization of inputs
(i.e., feed), does not necessarily ensure the dairy
business will be profitable.
