California remains the top milk state

The Golden State continues to lead the nation in milk production, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture report. California cows produced about 287 million gallons of milk in October, well ahead of Wisconsin's 173 million gallons. However, the California total was nine-tenths percent less than October 2007. The number of cows being milked increased by about 13,000. But the amount of milk per cow declined slightly as dairy farmers trimmed feed costs by using hay with less protein.
