Other dairy production areas (i.e. much of NSW) supply the domestic market which requires year-round production. œ The dairy industry is heavily reliant upon water availability; the industry is currently facing uncertainty over water policy. œ Since deregulation in 2001, the industry has undergone rationalisation. This has left a core of efficient producers that are able to compete against international competitors who are heavily subsidised.

...Did you know? Publications Calendar of events Prices Global Agribusiness contacts 2 8 11 13 14 21 Regional views Overview With teams around the Globe, this document sets out to give a flavour of what our local agribusiness experts are observing in their territories. This month we are reminded of the ever present impact of volatility on Global agriculture. We have seen significant falls in dairy commodities, grains and oils in 2014 with coffee soaring in the opposite direction on the back of a drought in Brazil. The moves have happened quickly (e.g dairy down over 50% in New Zealand since February 2014 and coffee spot prices up over 30% since August 2014) and this can be difficult for farm families or small holders to deal with. For example in the UK, dairy farmers have taken to public protests and blockades. At PwC we are bullish on the long term prospects for agriculture given Global population and wealth trends however we also recognise that this future optimism can be meaningless to a farmer when short term production costs exceed selling price. Agriculture is a volatile industry and participants have to put in place their own strategies to deal with this which are right for them, be it selling forward or hedging for budget certainty, insuring where possible against crop loss, keeping a buffer of cash or liquid assets which can be quickly released to sustain a business when margins are eroded or having the flexibility to switch production out of loss making commodities...

...MILKA KREM OVERVIEW SCIENCE CITY OF MUÑOZ, Nueva Ecija –The Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) has launched a market venue for dairy farmers called "Milka Krem,"the venue will serve as market place for locally produced milk after being processed in the state-of the-art central milk collecting and processing facility in this city. PCC director, Dr. Caro Salces said that essentially, the Milka Krem is an infrastructure support for dairy farmers. It is an avenue to empower small farmers that are provided with an opportunity to have an access to the commercial market for bigger income. The Milka Krem carries the tagline “Fresh and Natural” which is anchored on products development through science-based practices, Salces said. The raw milk that is processed every day comes from healthy animals that are well-managed and taken cared off by small dairy farmers, he said. The PCC official said that these dairy animals are fed with naturally-grown forage and feeds that guarantee their sound diet essential for the production of fresh milk. Prior to processing and packaging, the freshly harvested milk is pasteurized to preserve the high level of health-promoting substances such as anti-cancer properties naturally inherent in buffalo milk, he said. Buffalo milk is high in milk solids and protein content making it very suitable for dairy product processing, he added. Dr. Salces said that Milka Krem’s flagship products are coffee concoctions that are all milk-based, "mozzarella di buffala cheese"...

... (2013). The Dairy Industry: A Brief Description of Production Practices, Trends, and Farm Characteristics Around the World. Journal Of Agromedicine, 18(3), 187-197. doi:10.1080/1059924X.2013.796901 “The global dairy industry is composed of a multitude of countries with unique production practices and consumer markets. The global average number of cows per farm is about 1–2 cows; however, as a farm business model transitions from sustenance to market production, the average herd size, and subsequent labor force increases. Dairy production is unique as an agricultural commodity because milk is produced daily, for 365 days per year. With the introduction of new technology such as the milking parlor, the global industry trend is one of increasing farm sizes. The farm sizes are the largest in the United States; however, the European Union produces the most milk compared with other global producers. Dairy production is essential for economic development and sustainable communities in rural areas. However, the required capital investment and availability of local markets and labor are continued challenges. Due to farm expansion, international producers are faced with new challenges related to assuring food safety and a safe working environment for their workforce. These challenges exist in addition to the cultural and language barriers related to an increasing dependence on immigrant labor in many regions of the world. Continued success of the global dairy industry is vital. Therefore...

...Introduction Dairy production accounts for 18% of Community agricultural output of the European Union and is the pillar of all agricultural activities. European Union is the world’s primary exporter of dairy products, even with a reduction in its market share (Zervoudaki 2011). The EU dairy market is regulated by the Common Market Organization (CMO) for its milk products, one of which is the milk quota system. The milk quota system was introduced to the EU in 1984 and the idea was embraced because it offered a way to control milk production, stabilize milk price and farm income (Seville 2009; Petit 1987). As the markets become more free-flowing and globalized, disputes about the system arose. Since the implementation of the system, the negative aspects of it have reared its ugly heads. It not only put a cap on milk production,but also lost the competitive edge in the world market due to the stabilization of milk prices (Seville 2009). Therefore, the reforms made on June 26th 2003 in Luxembourg have proposed major changes to the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Direct subsidies were to be independent from production and strict compliance with EU standards on environment and health was enforced. In reality, milk producers take market demand into consideration rather than the influence from subsidies to determine their production quota. (Bouamra-Mechemache and Requillart 2004). However, EU dairy market is still regulated by the mandatory quota system because the agreement...

...ODHI Case Study Executive Summary The Ontario Dairy Herd Improvement Corporation, run by general manager John Meek, aims to improve the efficiency and profitability of dairy farming through an accurate, rapid, and cost effective milk testing service. Milk testing is an essential herd management component for all dairy processors as it measures the amount, quality and contents of the dairy products. Supply management agencies limit milk production; thus, profit is maximized through acquiring premiums from quality dairy with high levels of protein and butter fat as opposed to mass production and distribution. The dairy herd is the largest source of revenue for farmers, data from milk testing helps maximize milk production as farmers can determine which livestock to cull, mate, treat or assign specific rations for every cow. The ODHI is a non-profit corporation based in Ontario, with a head office in Guelph and testing facilities in Kempt Ville, Orangeville, and Woodstock. ODHI has proven to be quite price sensitive as annual rises in prices has lead to a steady decline of 3% in memberships over the past ten years. Furthermore, their main sources of revenue are memberships and government funding. But, government funding has not kept up with the inflation over the years making it difficult to provide the service at a rate that’s lower than cost. Although, Ontario DHI is experiencing a financial surplus, John Meek is worried that the current business structure and program...

...Corporation In Your Home Country Gabriel Ferreira International Public Relations – PUR6608 class University of Florida THE BRAZILIAN MILK FRAUD SCANDAL 2 The Brazilian Dairy Market background. Over the last decade, the Brazilian dairy market has been one of the most fast growing dairy markets in the world. In the early 90s, the Brazilian agro-industrial milk sector suffered three very important changes: it starting being an open economic market for international competitors; at the time inflation was decreasing; and so milk prices drop significantly. All of these changes would not have been possible without the implementation of the Real Plan in 1994 (the new Brazilian coin plan until today) that strengthened investments in the country, especially in the milk-producing sector. These investments also lead to an increase in population number and to changes in alimentary habits (Nahmias, 2008). By becoming such a lucrative sector, the milk and dairy product sector in Brazil became the target for food adulteration processes. Its high-value role in feeding specific groups inside the population, such as children’s, women and elders, and regarding the expensive undergoing steps to achieve a final product that could be sold in the market, was some of the key aspects that attracted Brazilian dairy farms to adulterate its raw milk productions on the first place (De La Fuente & Juarez, 2005). Parmalat’s Major Setback. In 2003, the world leading Italian food conglomerate Parmalat...

...there are negatives as well, in this case the skill level of the workers must be considered. Unskilled or untrained workers may not be able to produce quality products. This can effect the business due to a shortage of items, this could lead to price increases due to the competitive nature of providing needed products. This can lead to disagreements between vendors who have a history with each other as they compete for products or raw materials. This can have a negative effect on business relationships. 2. You operate a dairy farm, raising cows for the production of raw milk products. Briefly identify the levels of vertical integration that you would anticipate being possible for such an operation (include both backward and forward integration in your response). A look at the dairy farm business shows that there is a highly competitive environment. Challenges are distribution, and the level of expertise necessary to understand the business of dairy farming. Also a consideration is the storage of materials and inventory, large areas are...

Emissions of gaseous components, aqueous effluents containing heavy loads of biodegradable organics (high BOD values), and solid or pasty residues of different compositions are frequently accompanying phenomena of food production lines. The dairy processing industry is known for high energy and water consumption, in part due to product diversification. The energy consumption in some dairy companies has been significantly reduced through the coupling of heat and power generation. Although the consumption of water and the generation of waste water has been reduced over the past years, it has not been decreased sufficiently. Until now, in the overwhelming majority of process units, end-of-pipe technologies have been preferably applied to protect natural systems against inputs of contaminants, while, on the contrary, the number of studies referring to a more modern process design is rather limited. For a more advanced processing of substances in the dairy industry, there are many potential applications for membrane processes...
