Modelling Gippsland Dairy Farm Systems

Dairy farm businesses operate in an environment where changes in costs, prices, policy and climatic conditions significantly affect productivity and profitability. This project aimed to provide a robust analysis of the impact of changes in the operating environment on the profitability of different Gippsland dairy farm systems. The results of the investigation of these alternative futures will inform the decisions of dairy farmers, their advisers and researchers.
