The study was conducted in Begusarai district of Bihar by collecting data from 80 member and 80 non-member milk producing households which were stratified into small, medium and large herd size categories. Per day maintenance cost was found to be higher for member group than non-member group. It was found to be higher for crossbred cow than that for buffalo and also more in winter season. Per litre cost of milk production was found to be higher for non-member as compared to that for member for both crossbred cow and buffalo and was higher for summer season. Per litre cost of milk production decreased with increase in herd size category. The return per litre of milk was more for members than non-members in case of both crossbred cow and buffalo and also found higher in winter season. The net return from crossbred cow was more than that from buffalo indicating higher profitability in rearing crossbred cow in the area.
