Abstract

Excerpts from the report Introduction: Markets in New York (principally New York City) and in northern New Jersey receive their milk supplies from a region that extends more than 400 miles from New York City. This milkshed--the largest of its kind in the world--includes the State of New York and parts of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Connecticut, Maryland, and Delaware. The milkshed provides the New York-New Jersey market with approximately 10 billion pounds of milk each year. This includes the output of more than 50,000 dairy farms. The task of getting this milk from these farms to the final consumers in the right form, at the right time, and at the right place is extremely large and complex. The firms, the plants, and the individuals who do this job comprise the dairy industry of the milkshed. The purpose of this report is to provide a more complete understanding of the organization and structure of the industry, and the functions and services it performs, for the guidance of those responsible for recommending or making changes in the milk marketing order to improve the efficiency of the market.
