Dairy Operation Data
Verified contacts for dairy producers across America. Herd size tiers from family operations to mega-dairies, with state-level filtering and processor relationship data where available.
What's included
FieldWork's dairy dataset covers actively reporting operations across all 50 states. Each record includes the operation name, operator or owner contact, verified email where available, direct phone, mailing address, primary commodity, acreage or head count tier, and certification status.
Data is sourced from USDA FSA program records, USDA Organic Integrity (where applicable), state ag departments, and EWG farm subsidy data. Operations are cross-referenced across multiple sources before contact data is enriched and verified.
Industry context
Dairy is consolidating fast. The number of US dairy operations has dropped roughly 50% over the past 15 years while average herd size has more than doubled. Wisconsin, California, New York, Idaho, and Texas account for the majority of US milk production.
Who uses this data
Teams selling agtech software, seed, crop protection, equipment, equipment rental, crop insurance, ag finance, and CPG ingredient buying to dairy operations. If your product or service serves this segment of agriculture, FieldWork provides the contacts you need to reach decision-makers directly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What dairy operation data fields are included?
Standard fields: operation name, operator name, deliverability-tested email, direct phone, business address, primary crop or livestock type, acreage tier, organic certification status, and FSA participation status. We can add rotation patterns or processor relationships on request.
How is the data verified?
Every operation starts with a USDA program participation record. We verify operation status, classify by primary crop and acreage, validate the email address, and check the phone number. Records that fail any verification step are flagged or excluded.
How fresh is the data?
Every list is built on demand. There's no stale database sitting on a server. USDA data is pulled at the time of your order, and contact details are verified before delivery. Most data is less than two weeks old when you receive it.
Do you cover dairy operations in all states?
All 50 states. USDA records are national. State ag department data varies in completeness, with California, Iowa, Texas, and the Plains states being the strongest. We've built reliable pipelines for every state.
What's your email coverage on grower data?
Email coverage runs roughly 35-55% across grower data. It's higher on larger operations (over 1,000 acres) and on certified organic operations because those operators tend to have more web presence. It's lower on small family operations. We tell you the expected coverage before you order.
USDA-verified grower contacts in days, not after an annual contract.
No platform to learn. No enterprise contract. Just verified grower data segmented by crop, acreage, and operation type.
