Abstract

Excerpts from the report: Realizing the importance of the trend to bulk handling, Farmer Cooperative Service conducted a study of the cost records of 10 receiving plants operated by a cooperative in the Chicago Milkshed. Most of these plants were converting to bulk handling methods. This study covered the period from 1953 through the first 6 months of 1958. Objectives of this study were: 1. To compare milk receiving costs before, during, and after conversion to bulk methods. 2. To determine the costs of changing from can to bulk receiving methods. 3. To isolate factors associated with changes in the relationship between can and bulk receiving costs at various levels of conversion.
