Summary
Milk: Final Estimates by State, 2013-2017, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Statistics Board, National
Agricultural Statistics Service, Statistical Bulletin No. 1055.
Introduction: This bulletin presents final estimates, including revisions made by the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB),
for the production years 2013 through 2017. Number of milk cows, production per cow, and total production were
published during calendar years 2013-2017 in periodic ASB reports. Disposition and Income data will be published in the
Milk Disposition and Income - Final Estimates 2013-2017 Statistical Bulletin No. 1060.
Procedures: Revisions were made after a thorough review of the original survey data and all additional data now
available, including the 2017 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 2013-2017 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.
