Economics - Model Dairy Farm

MODEL PROJECT FOR SETTING UP 10 & 20 COW DAIRY FARM (INDICATIVE)

The model project for 10 and 20 cows farm have been provided in this section.

The above models are only indicative and in no way designed to provide exact economics. Following guidelines may be used by the interested persons to work out the details of their project, depending upon the local market and conditions.

An interactive module considering the land availability for fodder cultivation, willingness to opt for silage bunkers, type of chaff cutter (manual or machine operated), milking machine, mister set, etc. is under preparation.

The proposed interactive module would require preference for set of inputs and intended herd size and accordingly generate output outlining the estimated investment, cost and return.

The project outlines the following

  • Asset requirements in terms of land, equipment, building and animals
  • Estimated total investment
  • Estimated Fixed cost
  • Estimated Variable cost
  • Estimated Income generated
  • Profit before Depreciation, Interest and Tax
  • Internal Rate of Return and
  • Return on Investment
