booming dairy Industry ? from the
dairy cow to the chilled carton of
fresh milk left on your doorstep.
To say that the North Carolina

is Important to the state's ectnomy

Suffice to aay that North Caiolina
has some 58,000 individual farm
families who are in the business
of keeping cows to produce milk.
The gross dairy farm into ire in
this state climbed over the bil
lion dollar mark in 1987. Just the
cows on the state's dairy farms
were valued at about $38.5 mil
lion. ^
The average grade A dairyman
in North Carolina with a 24-cow
milking herd baa an estimated
$27,000 invested in animals and
dairy equipment alone.
And there's the dairy manufac
turing side of the picture. Dairy
processing plants have an ap
proximate average capital invest
ment of $38 per quart of daily
