Profit Monitor

any figures yet

Yep, the adviser emailed me out results from the 1st 200 farmers who completed theirs for teagasc (so these results would be skewed towards the better farmer who have their act together.) Anyways average of 16c/l profit before repayments/tax etc, the top 20% were doing 20c/l. Considering the exceptional milk prices, 16c is by no means huge, increased feed costs obviously took their toll during the cold spring and summer drought.

Ffs , posting results of so called profit monitors on a public forum. No charge for your own input, labour and professional expertise. Do you see your suppliers posting their margin on here or the purchasers of your products posting theirs. Cutting a stick to beat yourself with.

Don't agree as Greenfield program and others do it. Do you honestly think it makes a difference.

It's the few jackasses on here would stop me before any other concerns

on a serious note
Yeer customers have it calculated years ago and adjust every time any variable moves
they also know the differen. Levels of skill/complacency out there

Ps. Never begrudge a true dairy man profit as the few round me work harder earlier and smarter 365 days a year than me or any @f my beef or sheep friends

9cent in the year gone by wouldn't be over the top. What % of solids was produced from own resources? And profit/hec whole farm (not inc dp's). What is 18.5c/l

18.5 cent per litre profit

335 kg ms per cow from forage

2161 profit per ha across whole farm- 101 milkers 125 0-20month old replacements and 20 bulls

Timmaay

Serious amount of kgs MS/ha, I remember you saying before your future cows will be lower yeilding, where the optimum point, 2000? The greenfield and alot of monitored farms aim for about 1400 I think? Or would you aim to match the output to say milk price, when its high feed the cows to yeild more etc?

Your grazing block is 24 ha is it, what area is required on top of that to support your young stock/silage requirements/cropped in maize be interesting to
see how much total ground is required in a system such as yours.

stanflt

78 ha required of which 10 ha grows about 5 ton dm ha pa from may - sept with plenty of surface water and rushes

They're too busy laughing all the way to the bank, they probably make 32 cents a litre, with the delivery guy putting it on the shelf and the customer taking it off for them.

Great performance for the year stan
What is your whole farm stocking rate inc rented ground and any other crops that contribute to the dairy/replacement enterprise. I think you said all purchased feed and forage has been included.
Curious as I've been running at 2.89 Ly/ha whole farm up till this year, but when purchased forage (not meal under t/cow) was included it was back to 2.4-2.6 Ly/ha

Generally figures people quote are the gross/ net or common figures as there is a huge difference

Edit : do people include creditors for the year end in their figures

Put them in every year but the pm is very open as to what figures people use
Pm is for my own benefit not to compare with others.

Some people that are just getting to grips with pm leave out creditors on the basis that they will be roughly the same as last year and carry through the next years pm

Not sure on overall stocking rate but I know on 78 ha I was at 189 nitrates
Luckily I had exported 320000 litres of slurry last April

Don't have creditors luckily just month ends

It's right they are open to manipulation, so I wouldn't get too hung up on other people figures if I didn't know them too we'll. They're best used for comparing ur own farms performance from yr to yr. The more yrs u complete one the more u get out of it, at least that's what I think!
