Abstract: The measures of the state agrarian policy, implemented for a number of years at the Federal and regional levels, have created prerequisites for mitigating the negative consequences of the development of the dairy cattle industry. This allowed to overcome the trend of annual reduction of milk production in Russia in all categories of farms since 2016, and agricultural organizations to strengthen their positions in the dairy market. However, the potential of the industry is not yet fully realized. One of the factors is the still not suspended reduction in the number of cows, which reached 12.6 million heads by 2018 compared to the pre-reform 1990 year, due to the difficult financial and economic condition of agricultural producers. The article shows that the price of raw milk sales to dairy enterprises not only does not grow, but also is not characterized by stable parameters during the year, which affects the competitiveness of production. Using the data of balance sheets and annual reports of agricultural organizations of the Leningrad region, the role of budget support in the economy of dairy farms is considered, calculations of the economic efficiency of milk processing in farms depending on the productivity of cows are carried out. It is concluded that milk processing directly in agricultural organizations can be effective and economically feasible, as in the modern market environment and the allocated funds of state support of the agricultural sector; it will allow using the internal reserves of production activities of farms. The study used methods of statistical groupings and comparisons.
