| This article is concerned with the economics of a planned system of supplementary irrigation and pasture improvement on a typical Richmond Valley dairy farm. In developing the plan for the farm, consideration is, given to a range of assumptions concerning the farmer's resources of labour and machinery. Similarly, three different levels of production response are considered; these represent assumed variations in the managerial skills of farmers. Thus, with a typical initial farm production of 8.650 lb. butterfat, the gains assumed are: (1) an increase of 4,830 lb. butterfat under "good management"; (2) an increase of 6,040 lb. butterfat under "outstanding management"; and (3) an increase of 3,620 lb. butterfat under "average management". For each set of... |
