27 Questions?

28 3/22/2013 Opportunities (Considerations) for New Dairy Operations in Nevada Allen Young Dairy Extension Specialist Utah State University Nevada Stats 2012 % change 2011 Rank No. dairies 20 0 Milk production (mil lb) Cow numbers (1,000) Cows/dairy 1450 Milk/cow (lb) 22, Milk/person (lb)* 241 *deficient even for fluid and soft products (<300 lb) Introduction Profit = (Income Expenses) * Volume Income Milk (90%) Pounds of fat, protein, OS Expenses Feed (USDA, 2011 = 80%) Replacements Labor IOFC income over feed cost 1

29 3/22/2013 Income What will I be paid for my milk? Will it be enough to reconsider relocation? Markets for culls? Shipping costs? Feed Costs Are forages available? Assuming yes (that s the draw) Can I get the rest of the ration easily (cheaply )? Grain By-products Etc. Example: Assumptions of Feed Cost Milking Cows: 52 lbs DMI (+ shrink?) = $8.50/d 90% milking = $2,792,250 / yr Dry Cows: 25 lbs DMI (+ shrink?) = $5.00/d 10% dry = $182,500 / yr Assumption: 1000 cows = $2,974,750 2

30 3/22/2013 Example: Feed Cost Case for local hay redirected to local dairy USU Dairy high forage ration (best case scenario for a hay seller) 26 lb dry hay /c/d $220 (cost + $20 shipping) Total lactating cow ration cost $8.75 /c/d Reduce hay cost by $30/T ($170) = $8.36 /c/d Value is a savings of $0.39 /c/d 1000 cows = $142,350 /yr (This is a 4.79% saving. How does this compare with income?) Planning Process Many decisions are interrelated Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Relocating a dairy is much more difficult than expanding a dairy! Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July

31 3/22/2013 Prerequisites Financial ability to proceed You will put capital at risk. Mental ability to proceed You will get depressed. Support to proceed You will need family, friends, etc. What are you willing to risk to start this new business? Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Planning Process Area Selection (Nevada vs other?) Site Selection Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Area Selection: Family Considerations Are you planning to move to the new location? Will your family be happy in this new location? Are you willing to travel? Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July

32 3/22/2013 Area Selection: Government Regulations Local Permits Zoning codes Building permits Milk codes/permits Just because it is farm country, do not assume you can put a farm there! Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Area Selection: Government Regulations (cont.) CAFO permits Environmental Impact Statements Public Hearings The first dairy may be regarded different than the 5 th or 10 th Area Selection: Community Reaction You cannot realistically be sure until you try to build. It only takes 1 hot-head to delay the project. Sometimes it is the neighboring dairies that can cause the most trouble. Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July

33 3/22/2013 Site Selection Location, location, location Where am I going to build? How much can I afford to pay for land? How many acres to support size? 1 acre per cows farmstead alone 1 2 acres per cow for waste management Custom heifer raised vs farm-raised Grow or buy feed? You are assuming they will buy. What to do with manure? Manure Production 1000 cows There s a lot ~ 13,860 gal/day or 5,062,500 gal/yr or ~20,958 Tons ~574 lb N/day or ~209,500 lb N/yr ~235 lb P 2 O 5 /day or ~85,833 lb P 2 O 5 /yr (equals ~1458 acres of corn grain or 1042 acres of corn silage) ~454 lb K 2 O/day or ~166,667 lb K 2 O/yr Kevin H. Elder, ODNR-Division of Soil and Water Conservation General Considerations Water How much? Lactating cow - ~25-30 gal/d (~3 lb / 1 lb milk) Total - ~57 gal/d depending on parlor, heat abatement, etc. Cost? Quality?? Well or city? A 1000-cow dairy can use over 40,000 gal per day. 6

34 3/22/2013 Other Issues What is the soil type and ground water levels? What are the odor issues? What are the temperature extremes? What are the rainfall amounts (you re in a desert)? Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Management/labor They will be Latinos. Considerations: How many? Are they available? Can you compete with alternate employers (i.e. construction, mining, etc.)? Assumptions: Labor 2400 cows 2 Managers 11 Herdspersons + Admin. 11 Milkers 4 Feeders + Relief $750,000+ / year + 18% fringe + 6% Workman s Comp % FICA Normand St-Pierre, ADSA Annual Mtg, July

35 3/22/2013 Financial Considerations Debt load Realistic operating budget Milk price needed to cash flow CAN THEY PAY THEIR BILLS??? There is no right way to proceed Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July 2000 Planning Things will always be more difficult than you expect! Building a new dairy is becoming a environmental challenge Traditional planning issues are minor compared to logistics of building a new dairy Source: Larry Jones, ADSA Annual Meeting, July

36 3/22/2013 Conclusion Do your homework ahead of time. First decide what you want to be on paper. Visit as many new facilities as possible for ideas. Hire someone who has a proven track record to build the dairy. Be realistic in budget development. Be prepared for delays and overruns. Keep Smiling! 9

81 Fallon Dry Milk Processing Plant: Crop Production Opportunities Jay Davison University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Fallon, NV

82 How Will the Plant Impact Forage Crop Use in Nevada? Full plant capacity is 730,000,000 Lbs. milk/year Nevada milk cows average 22,897 Lbs. milk/year* Currently Nevada has 29,000 milk cows producing 658,000,000 Lbs. milk /year for sale* Plant will require an additional 72,000,000 Lbs. milk/year (3200 milk cows) if all Nevada milk is sold to the plant. *2011 NASS report

83 Forage Needs 32,000 milk cows needed to service the milk plant How many extra cows will be needed and how will that impact current forage production in Nevada? Worst/best case analysis (32,000 cows milk plant + 15,000 cows for existing clients)

84 Producing Milk Cows Forage Needs Scenario # 1 Corn Silage + Alfalfa 50 Lbs./day corn silage + 17 Lbs. alfalfa hay/day Scenario # 2 Alfalfa Hay Only (high use alfalfa) 27 Lbs/day

85 #1 Corn Silage + Alfalfa 32,000 milk cows 32,000 x 50 Lbs./day x 365 days= 584,000,000 Lbs 2000 Lbs/ton = 292,000 tons corn silage needed

86 # 1 Corn Silage + Alfalfa (low use) 32,000 milk cows 32,000 x 17 Lbs./day x 365 days= 198,560,000Lbs 2000 Lbs/ton = 99,280 tons dairy quality alfalfa hay needed

87 # 2 Alfalfa (high use) 32,000 milk cows 32,000 x 27 Lbs./day x 365 days= 315,536,000 Lbs 2000 Lbs/ton = 157,680 tons dairy quality alfalfa needed annually

88 Alfalfa Dry Cows + Replacements Replacements (15 pounds/day) Dry Cows (26 pounds/day) 103,587 tons non-dairy quality alfalfa needed

89 Forage Needs-Milk Plant (Summary) 292,000 tons corn silage needed (~12,000 acres) + 99,280 tons alfalfa (~23,000 acres) (low use) or 157,680 tons alfalfa (~36,000 acres) (high use) + 103,587 tons alfalfa (~ 24,000 acres) (dry + replacements)

90 Milk Plant + Existing Clients Would require approximately 61,000 milk cows to meet both demands (29,000 existing + 32,000 plant). If 50% of existing milk is diverted to milk plant Nevada would need approximately 47,000 milk cows (15,000 existing + 32,000 for plant). Increase previous forage amounts by ~47%

91 Forage Needs of Milk Plant + 50% of Existing Clients 430,000 tons corn silage needed (~17,200 acres) + 146,000 tons alfalfa (~33,000 acres) (low use) or 232,000 tons alfalfa (~53,000 acres) (high use) + 152,000 tons alfalfa (~ 35,000 acres) (dry + replacements)

92 Current Forage Production in Nevada (2011) Alfalfa 85,000 tons in Churchill County 128,000 tons in Pershing County 77,000 tons in Eureka County 928,000 total tons alfalfa produced in northern Nevada in 2010 Corn Silage 200,000 tons in northern Nevada in 2011

93 Corn Silage 200,000 tons produced in 2010 (8000 acres) Need 430,000 tons (17,200 acres) Would need to increase corn silage production ~2x s to meet the needs of the cows supplying the milk plant and existing clients.

94 Alfalfa (Dairy Quality) Need 232,000 tons (high use alfalfa) annually of dairy quality alfalfa for the milk plant + existing 928,000 x 45% dairy quality = 417,600 tons of dairy quality (supreme, premium) produced in 2011 ~422,585 tons alfalfa shipped to California in 2010

95 Alfalfa (dairy quality) Appears that we produce more than adequate supplies of dairy quality alfalfa in Nevada for the milk plant + 50% of existing clientel, But, most of it is shipped to California! Shipping costs to California ~ $50/ton Shipping costs to Fallon ~ $20/ton

96 Alfalfa (dry cows + replacements) Need 152,000 tons annually of dry cow & replacement quality alfalfa for the milk plant 928,000 x 55% non-dairy quality = 510,400 tons of non-dairy quality produced in 2011 More than adequate supplies but compete with horse and beef market.

97 Alfalfa Appears that we produce more than adequate supplies of non-dairy quality alfalfa in Nevada May have price competition with the horse and beef cow industry

98 Conclusions Potential to greatly increase acreage dedicated to corn silage production in the Lahontan and Mason valley s as cow numbers increase Adequate alfalfa supplies, if much of alfalfa currently shipped to California is diverted to western Nevada due to transportation cost savings.
