Output per cow increased<br />
steadily between 1985 <strong>and</strong> 1995 in<br />
<strong>Genesee</strong> <strong>County</strong>, but has<br />
remained relatively stable since.<br />
Although this trend is similar to<br />
what Orleans <strong>and</strong> Wyoming<br />
<strong>County</strong> experienced, Wyoming<br />
county did manage to increase<br />
production per cow about 600<br />
pounds per year above <strong>Genesee</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong> after having nearly the<br />
same productivity in the 1980s <strong>and</strong><br />
mid 1990s.<br />
