Compared to last year at this time, about 421 herds either sold out or merged with other operations. Clark County continues to hold the highest number of herds in the state with 1,015. According to the DATCP, Wisconsin's milk cow inventory, at 1.24 million head, declined 10,000 head from January 1, 2004. Nationally, Wisconsin ranked second in the number of milk cows to California.
