Frequently Asked Questions
IOFC (Income Over Feed Cost) is a profitability indicator obtained by subtracting feed cost from milk income. It is the most commonly used economic performance metric in dairy farming. Enables quick decision-making with daily monitoring.
Feed cost is calculated by multiplying daily forage and concentrate intake by their unit prices. Feed cost accounts for 60-70% of total production cost in dairy cows. Using quality forage reduces concentrate needs and lowers costs.
IOFC should be positive. A negative IOFC means milk income does not cover feed costs, requiring ration optimization or milk yield improvement.
