The amount of investments in dairy cattle breeding directly impacts over the sector as a whole, return on investments, product quality, working conditions and incomes of employees. The aim of this study is to analyze the structure of investments and cost of cow milk in the studied farms. They were analyzed 3 farms in different regions in Bulgaria with a total of 460 cows. Investments in productive animals occupy the smallest percentage of the amount of investment expenses of the analyzed farms and the largest is the share of investments in land. The lowest are the cost of cow milk in the farms that include earlier animals in the main herd. The funds invested in animals from the main herd (cost of an animal from the main herd) would redeem within 1 lactation through produced milk with an average stay of 5 lactations per cow in the main herd.
