      abstract = {The estimated rate of return to investment in new dairy   operations is higher in the Southwestern United States than  in Minnesota or Washington, assuming 1981 prices and  construction and operating costs.  This difference comes  from lower investment required per cow, more milk produced  per cow, and higher milk prices in the Southwest.   The  report compares the profitability of dairy farming in  Minnesota, Arizona, New Mexico, and Washington.  Results  indicate that the Southwest likely will continue to  increase its share of total U.S. milk production.},
