Frequently Asked Questions |
|
Q: What is TPQ?
A:
TPQ is an abbreviation for Total Production Quota, which is allotted to producers on an annual basis. TPQ is expressed in kilograms of butterfat. Given a standard butterfat test of 3.6 kilograms per hectolitre, a cow that produces 10,000 litres of milk per year would require 360 kilograms of TPQ. Thus a farm with 100 cows would require 36,000 kilograms of TPQ.
