In this paper results of the effects of season and farm size on yield and chemical composition of collected milk are presented. The raw milk from total of 22 dairies is analyzed (9 which purchase milk from large farms and 13, which buy milk from small farms). The sampling is conveyed monthly throughout the year, and total of 264 milk samples are analyzed. According to results, the quantity of purchased milk were consistent throughout the year, while the season affected the amount of fat (p is less than 0.05), protein (p is less than 0.001) and dry matter without fat in milk – DMWF (p is less than 0.001). In milk samples from small farms the higher average amount of milk fat, protein and DMWF was found, which significantly differ from the large farm at p is less than 0.001, p is less than 0.001 and p is less than 0.05 respectively for the observed properties.
