Minnesota dairy farmers have a new tool to help streamline their business. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture has revamped the Dairy Business Planning Grant’s application process. The grant funding can be used to hire an independent third party to create a business plan for the dairy.
While the grant does not cover capital purchases, it will fund plans for operations, environmental upgrades, and business transfers. It pays 50 percent of the cost to develop a plan, up to five thousand dollars. Applications are funded on a first-come first-served basis.
You can find more information on the Minnesota’s Department of Agriculture’s website mda.state.mn.us.
