On average, the milk productivity of cows increased by 1043 kg on the farms with innovative technological solutions introduced. Practical significance. The introduction of the latest innovative technological solutions for the industrial production of milk provides an increase in milk revenues by increasing the productivity of cows and raising the prices of sales of products with higher qualitative characteristics, which made it possible to increase the profit from the sale of milk by 2.3 times, profitability – by 1,3 times.
