Summary

Milk: Final Estimates by State, 2008-2012, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Statistics Board, National

Agricultural Statistics Service, Statistical Bulletin No. 1036.

Introduction: This bulletin presents final estimates, including revisions made by the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB),

for the production years 2008 through 2012. Number of milk cows, production per cow, and total production were

published during calendar years 2008-2012 in periodic ASB reports. Disposition and Income data will be published in the

Milk Disposition and Income - Final Estimates 2008-2012 Statistical Bulletin No. 1041.

Procedures: Revisions were made after a thorough review of the original survey data and all additional data now

available, including the 2012 Census of Agriculture. Other data series considered included Federal Milk Market Orders,

State Departments of Agriculture, receipts of milk by plants and dealers, checkoff receipts, and any other available

administrative information. The 2008-2012 estimates shown herein are considered final and will not be revised again.

At the National level, revisions to estimates of milk production and annual number of milk cows were less than one

percent.
