29 CFR 780.111 - ``Dairying'' as a farming operation.

  • Section Number: 780.111
  • Section Name: ``Dairying'' as a farming operation.

    ``Dairying'' includes the work of caring for and milking cows or 
goats. It also includes putting the milk in containers, cooling it, and 
storing it where done on the farm. The handling of milk and cream at 
receiving stations is not included. Such operations as separating cream 
from milk, bottling milk and cream, or making butter and cheese may be 
considered as ``dairying'' under some circumstances, or they may be 
considered practices under the ``secondary'' meaning of the definition 
when performed by a farmer or on a farm, if they are not performed on 
milk produced by other farmers or produced on other farms. (See the 
discussions in Secs. 780.128 et seq.)
