2008 Agricultural Crop and Livestock Report

Tremendous strides have been made in the past 10 years to overcome the challenges of desert dairying and you should consider the Imperial Valley as an alternative for a profitable dairy operation. Three dairies are currently operating in the Imperial Valley. One has attracted a Gossner Foods, Inc. plant, which operates adjacent to the dairy and is the only Swiss cheese factory in California.
