Numbers<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s start by looking at some numbers for the dairy industry in the U.S. and in Texas.\u00a0 Figures 1 and 2 illustrate milk production over the last two decades in the United States according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ers.usda.gov\/data-products\/dairy-data\/\">USDA ERS dairy data<\/a>.\u00a0 Figure 1 shows the change in total milk production from 2000 to 2022.\u00a0 In 2022, the United States produced 226,620 million pounds of milk, which is equivalent to 26,351 million gallons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone

in the United States in each year from 2000 to 2022 and the amount of milk produced per cow.\u00a0 During this period, the average number of milk cows in the U.S. ranged from a low of about 9 million head in 2004 to a high of almost 9.45 million head in 2021.\u00a0 Over this same period, the milk produced per cow increased from 17,763 pounds (about 2,065.5 gallons) in the year 2000 to 24,097 pounds (about 2,802 gallons) last year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3003 aligncenter\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Over this same period, the dairy industry in Texas has grown tremendously, according to USDA ERS data.\u00a0 In the year 2000, the State of Texas ranked sixth both in number of dairy cows and in amount of milk produced with about 348,000 dairy cows and 5,743 million pounds of milk produced.\u00a0 By 2022, these numbers increased to 646,000 cows and 16,524 million pounds of milk.\u00a0 Texas is currently the fourth largest state both in terms of dairy cows and in terms of milk production.<\/p>\n<h3>Dairy Consumption in the United States<\/h3>\n<p>Figure 3 below compares U.S. per capita consumption of different types of dairy products in 2021 as reported by USDA ERS.\u00a0 That year, U.S. consumers drank about 134 pounds of milk on average, which accounted for just under 60% of total dairy consumption.\u00a0 The next largest categories of per capita dairy consumption were cheese and ice cream.\u00a0 In 2021, U.S. consumer ate on average 40.3 pounds of cheese and 18.4 pounds of ice cream.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3004 aligncenter\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>How dairy is consumed in the U.S. has changed over time.\u00a0 According to USDA ERS, in the year 2000 the average U.S. consumer drank about 196 pounds of fluid milk, which is about 23 gallons.\u00a0 In 2021, this figure had decreased to 134 pounds, or 15.6 gallons.\u00a0 Consumption of cheese and butter, on the other hand, both increased.\u00a0 Per capita cheese consumption increased by about 8 pounds from between the years 2000 and 2021, and per capita butter consumption increased by about 2 pounds per person.<\/p>\n<h3>The U.S. Dairy Industry in the Global Market<\/h3>\n<p>In terms of the global market, the United States is both a major producer and exporter of dairy products.\u00a0 According to the latest USDA Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fas.usda.gov\/data\/dairy-world-markets-and-trade\">World Markets and Trade report<\/a> for dairy, the United States maintained the fourth largest dairy herd in the world from 2018-2022 and was the second largest producer of fluid milk during this period.<\/p>\n<p>USDA FAS estimates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fas.usda.gov\/data\/commodities\/dairy-products\">U.S. dairy exports in 2022<\/a> at 3 million metric tons with a value of $9.51 billion.\u00a0 The top markets for U.S. dairy exports in 2022 were Mexico, Canada, and China.\u00a0 Mexico was the largest export market for U.S. dairy products with exports valued at $2.44 billion, which is more than double the value of exports to Canada and is triple the value of exports to China.<\/p>\n<h3>Food for Thought<\/h3>\n<p>If
