Abstract

 The research had the objective of analyzing the production of bovine milk at different productive levels in the municipality of Pejuçara-RS. The semi-standardized, non-probabilistic and finite population sampling methodology was used. The research was carried out with 35 producers (90% confidence interval and 10% margin of error). The properties were grouped into three production strata: 0 to 200 liters / day; From 201 to 500 liters / day; And above 501 liters / day. Most dairy farmers are over 50 years old and over 20 years of experience in this activity. Of the total only 7 producers were under 40 years of age. The production systems are semi-intensive, where the animals are raised in cultivated pasture and receive feed and corn silage after the milking. This system, coupled with good animal genetics and adequate sanitary management, promotes an adequate production of animal milk / day. Much of the income of the municipality of Pejuçara is derived from the dairy activity, so the extension work serves as a support in the decision making aiming at improvements in the critical points and the improvement in the positive points in the diverse properties of the municipality.
