Dairy farm development plans in the EU
Original language description
More than 2000 dairy farmers from 16 countries participated in a ?Snapshot? survey, organised by the European Dairy Farmers association (EDF) in spring of 2010. The survey analyses the intentions of dairy farmers over the next five years. The results imply growth in milk production, thanks to the farmers plans to increase their herd sizes by 10 cows/farm/year to an EU-average of 198 cows/farm by 2015. Being asked about their problems when expanding their dairy enterprise substantially, more than 30% ofthe participating farmers reported that the availability of land is a big problem. Intensification of dairy farming seems to be the strategy most farmers with land scarcity want to achieve in the future (80%). Other strategies like buying feedstuff externally (60%), cooperating with other farmers (57%), exporting slurry (50%), paying higher prices (39%) or even changing farm location (8%) find less acceptance among the participating dairy farmers.
