Wisconsin has a strong dairy business, that we know. But, in what areas of the industry does the state lead the nation? Find out below. We’d love to hear from other states too!

The Wisconsin dairy industry is big business.

As a result, Wisconsin leads way in the vibrant business of dairy:

· Wisconsin leads the nation in the number of dairy herds in the 200- to 500-cow range.
· Wisconsin continues to lead the nation and the world in the types, styles and varieties of cheeses we produce (now over 600).
· Wisconsin is home to cheesemakers who continue to win more awards than any other state or country.
