WATERTOWN, New York (WWNY) - Research shows the 2024 business year for New York state dairy farms showed impressive improvement over 2023.

The dairy farm business summary and analysis project is among the longest-running applied research programs at Cornell University’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

The group collected data from nearly 130 farms and looked at earnings, and determined that net farm income in 2024 increased by 150 percent when compared to 2023.

Since its launch in 1956, the initiative has partnered directly with dairy farm families to evaluate financial and business performance.
