Our report, Farm Profitability: Benchmarking for better decisions, examines the ways in which benchmarks taken from farm financial statements can be used to assess operational and financial performance. To take this one step further, our team examines three example dairy farms, illustrating how these benchmarks work to compare results.
Applying benchmarks to three example dairy farms
Three example dairy farms are examined to help illustrate the usefulness of benchmark comparisons. These examples do not represent any specific farms in our report sample, but fall within the range. Ratios, operating incomes, and earnings before taxes are presented for each farm. For ease of comparison, each farm is set to have 100kg of quota and $900,000 in revenue.
