| Résumé : | In this paper an attempt is made to present the viability and competitiveness of our dairy farming based on cow milk production data of 38,360 dairy cows from four Centres of Genetic Improvement of Animals in Greece and physical and economic data from 45 modern and well organized dairy farms from the most important milk production regions. Under present economic conditions pure dairy farms which produce less than 5,000 Kg milk per cow are not viable, those which produce between 5,000 and 6,000 Kg milk per cow are viable but not competitive. Pure dairy farms however which produce more than 6,000 Kg milk per cow are not only viable but also competitive. The decision tree analysis showed that the gross return achieved in actual practice is 6,8 percent lower than that estimated by multiplying milk yield and price without probabilities. Taking into account that the prospects in the European Union are for milk prices to decrease, it can be said that the viability and much more the competitiveness of the Greek dairy farming must be based on the increase of the average productivity of cows, the decrease of the total feed costs, the decrease of the labour used and the decrease of interest rate of short and long term loans |
