"All three volumes of Achieving sustainable production of milk
should be considered as a whole...Over more than 1200 pages, the
authors review all fields of milk production, beginning with milk
composition, genetics and breeding, safety and milk quality,
sustainability of milk production as well as dairy herd management,
health, welfare and nutrition of dairy. All three volumes could be
considered a standard reference for graduate students in the fields
of dairy science and veterinary medicine, animal and dairy
scientists at universities and other research centres, and also
those in governments and companies involved or working in the field
of milk production." Animal Feed Science and Technology In meeting
rising demand, more intensive dairying systems face a range of
challenges such as maintaining high standards of safety in the face
of the continuing threat from zoonoses, whilst sustaining
nutritional and sensory quality. At the same time farms need to
become more efficient and sustainable. Finally, farming must also
meet higher standards of animal health and welfare. Smallholder
systems in developing countries face problems such as poor cattle
nutrition, low productivity and vulnerability to disease which
impact on safety, quality, sustainability and animal welfare.
Drawing on an international range of expertise, this book reviews
research addressing safety, quality and sustainability. Part 1
reviews pathogens affecting milk, their detection and control. The
second part of the book discusses the environmental impact of dairy
farming and ways it can be better managed, from improved nutrition
to ways of protecting biodiversity. The book also reviews ways of
supporting smallholders improve dairy farming in the developing
world. Achieving sustainable production of milk Volume 2: Safety,
quality and sustainability will be a standard reference for animal
and dairy scientists in universities, government and other research
centres and companies involved in milk production. It is
accompanied by two further volumes which review milk composition,
genetics and breeding as well as dairy herd management and welfare.
