The Farming Information Centre is a central resource of world class information on all areas of milk production. It has been designed to help and encourage dairy farmers to make positive changes to their businesses, whether to improve efficiency, comply with legislation or make plans for the future. This part of the website will be developed over time, with new content and other links to information from around the world.

This information is derived not only from DairyCo's own R&D department but also from the best R&D worldwide. Information is designed to be technical and practical and provided in a range of tools and formats. There are online calculators, downloadable files, lists of relevant publications, contacts and areas of latest news and events.
