Dairy Technology & Safety

Dairy technology is a field that encompasses the production and manufacturing of all dairy products as well as the machinery and methods used in the dairy industry. The largest part of the food supply chain is, by far, the dairy industry. This industry is an integral part of our food economy that not only supplies consumers with many ready-to-eat products such as milk, butter, and cheese but also produces many of the ingredients like milk powder and condensed milk that are found in processed foods. Milk itself has also become a key ingredient for the deployment of probiotics and the development of functional food products designed to improve consumer health.
