one of the most important Dairy Production Centers

it's about a place in which the production of milk related products is big. There's a place like this in Argentina (Cuenca lechera central de Argentina) and some other places as well

I think milkshed is fine (as one word)

Hi Andy,

As per the following link:

milk•shed


Pronunciation: (milk'shed"), [key]
—n.
a region producing milk for a specific community: the St. Louis milkshed.
http://dictionary.infoplease.com/milkshed

You'll also find the term separated into two words, as in:

http://thediagram.com/4_5/milkshed.html

Good luck!

Álvaro :O)

Thank you ver much!!!. Have a nice day.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Kelhara Translations : Although it is correct, the term is specific to the US and could lead to confusion in other areas of the world. If it's only for US use, it is perfect. I suppose it's always safer to stick to a general term, so I'd go with "dairy region".

Thanks for your help, Sara.
Peer comment(s):

agree Chris Ellison : This is definitely the neatest and most professional sounding answer. Could be "milk producing" to split hairs ;) Also "milk" more typical in this context: dairy farmer, milk production.
