dc.description.abstract	Hired labor plays a significant role on dairy farms, with more than nine thousand jobs provided by New York dairy farms in 2019. As farm size grows, hired employees provide a larger percentage of the labor needed to work the farm. In 2021, authors J. Karszes and C. Wolf presented an in-depth look at hired labor on larger dairy farms over a 10-year period in E.B. 2021-05 “Hired Labor on New York State Dairy Farms: Costs, Efficiency & Change from 2011-2020”. Since then, hired labor has continued to increase in cost. This paper presents updated trends, costs, and changes over the last seven years through 2022. From 2016 through 2022, 112 farms utilizing hired labor participated.
