Sharemilking

Encyclopedia : S : SH : SHA : Sharemilking

Sharemilking is a style of form of sharefarming applied to the dairy industry. The application of this model of farming is particularly common in New Zealand. Typically sharemilkers owns their own cows, and will often take the herd with them when shifting between properties. The model is not exploitative, and over time, sharemilkers often slowly buy out the landholder, or alternatively use it as a method to save for their own property.
