 INTRODUCTION
 Versatile food that is a basis of such products as:
1.Cheese
2.Ice cream
3.Butter
4.Cottage cheese

 milk is a major component of the human diet in many

developed countries
 INTRODUCTION

Dr. Elmer Verner McColum, a noted American nutritionist said:

“the people who have achieved, who have became large, strong and
vigorous people, who have the best trades in the world, who have an
appreciation for art, literature and music, who are progressive in science
and in every activity of the human intellect, are the people who have used
liberal amount of milk and its products.”
 Nutritional Importance of Milk

 Contains all the essential amino acids needed by humans

 Protein of milk is composed of casein, lactalbumin, letoglobulin and
serum albumin
 Casein is most abundant protein constituent of milk
 Lactalbumin is part of the enzyme system that synthesizes lactose in
the mammary gland
 Protein globulins of milk are structural parts of antibodies
 Nutritional Importance of Milk

 Colostrum contains many antibodies that give the newborn

protection from harmful microorganisms that invade the body
and causes illness
 First milk a female produces after a young is born
 Passive immunity – the protection that the colostrum provides after
being absorbed in the body until the young can develop antibodies in
its own body
 Nutritional Importance of Milk

 Minerals and vitamins are constituents of milk

 Vitamin A (helps keep the intestinal tract and skin in proper repair), vit
B complex, vit D (added to most marketed milk) and E
 Vitamin D, along with Ca and P is important in bone growth and repair
 Low in Vit C which prevents scurvy (a disease characterized by
bleeding, spongy gums and loose teeth)
 Low in Fe, therefore young animals consuming nothing but milk may
develop anemia
 Therefore, young children who depend heavily on milk for food
should be given juices from citrus and fruits
 Nutritional Importance of Milk

 There are many delectable and nutritious foods prepared from milk
 Cheese, ice cream and various iced milk drinks
 Milk may have a portion of water it contains removed and sugar added to
produce condensed milk, or it may be dried to produce either dried whole
milk or skim milk
 Dried, condensed milk – can provide milk to drink or be used in cooking
 Buttermilk – produced when butter is made or it can be cultured from milk
by the use of proper bacteria
 Cottage cheese – made of curdling the milk and removing most of the liquid
(whey)

 The Philippine Dairy Situation, Year 2007
 Dairy as an industry is worth ₱65 B.
 Largest agricultural export worth >US$500
 Local production is approximately 1%
 Year 2004 – 11, 610 metric ton
 Year 2006 – 12, 324 metric ton
 Dairy Animals
Cattle 11,261
Buffalo 13,380
Goat 1,105
Total 25,746

 Herd build-up program: Introduction of 500-1000 dairy animals annually

 The Philippine Dairy Situation, Year 2007
 Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI) suggested milk intake for Filipinos
is 30kg per person per year
 Assume that average production of dairy animal (cattle) is 2000 kg per lactation
per year
 How many dairy cattle do we need to have a per capita of 30 kg?
 Philippine population in 2007 = 88 million
 Dairy cattle needed = Required per capita x Population
Ave. production of
animal/year
= 30 kg x 88 M
2000 kg
= 1.32 M
 The Philippine Dairy Situation, Year 2007
 Importation on milk and milk products
338.88 million kg
91% - milk and cream 2.0% - cheese
3.5% - butter and cream fat 3.5% - curd

 Source of Importation
New Zealand 36
Australia 23
Thailand 12
USA 11
Others 18
Total 100%
 Exportation: 10% of what we import are exported. Mostly milk and cream to Indonesia,
Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and others.
 Global Milk Output, Year 2007
YEAR MILK POPULATION
2005 640 million tons 6.45 Billion
2006 657 million tons 6.50 Billion
2007 683 million tons 6.60 Billion

 Is there enough milk for all?

 Global Milk Output, Year 2007
 Per caput (kg/person) = Milk supply
World population
= 683 MT
6.6 B
= 683
6.6
= 103.5 kg/person

 “Enough milk for all”

 Government Efforts to Develop the Philippine Dairy
Industry
 Enactment of RA 7884
 Dairy Development Act of 1995
 President Fidel V. Ramos – February 20, 1995 (effective – March 12,1995)
 Integrates all government dairy development programs into the National Dairy
Authority or NDA
 Dairy Training and Research Institute (DTRI)
 Organized in 1992
 From the Dairy Husbandry Division of the Department of Animal Science,
UPLBCA
 Mandated to conduct research and training in dairy sciences
