Milk production - a fundamental component

Milk production is an important part of dairy farming and is practised all over the world. Milk is obtained by milking dairy cows, goats and sheep. This involves stimulating the animal's mammary glands and passing the milk through the udder into a milk tank or directly into a container.

Milk collection can be done manually or mechanically. Machine milking systems allow faster and more efficient milk collection, while manual milking offers more control over the process. Good hygiene is of great importance in milk collection to ensure the quality and safety of the milk.

It is important that milking equipment and utensils are cleaned and disinfected regularly. The milk obtained is sold to dairies or directly to consumers for further processing and sale. Milk is an important source of calcium and other essential nutrients and is highly valued in human nutrition.
