In cases where a dairy producer is unable to ship their milk to a processor, this factsheet is to provide general information regarding the potential feeding of unpasteurized milk to the dairy herd. Before feeding unpasteurized milk, consult with your nutritionist and veterinarian or your local extension educator/agent. According to Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection (DATCP) regulations, milk can be utilized for animal feed by the farm on which it was produced, but it cannot be sold or distributed as animal feed unless the farm possesses a commercial feed license and the milk is labeled accordingly.
