Entrepreneurship skills in Dairy Industry: A Critical Study on Importance of Hygienic Conditions in Dairy Industry

In terms of the variety of rural jobs available, India offers enormous opportunity for the growth of entrepreneurship. Since India produces more milk than any other country in the world (108 million tons), dairy farmers play a crucial role in the growth of the dairy industry and the socioeconomic fabric of the nation. One of the major occupations of the rural people in our nation is dairy farming. Any nation’s entrepreneurs play a crucial role in fostering technical advancement and economic expansion. Milk is an incredibly valuable and nourishing food that must be handled and kept with caution because of its limited shelf life. Due to its natural qualities, milk is a great medium for many microorganisms to thrive. These germs can enter milk through the process of milking, handling, storing, or transporting it to markets. Maintaining animal health, adhering to optimal practices for milking, and upholding cleanliness standards in the milking parlor are essential for reducing the microbial burden in raw milk. The current study offers recommendations to prevent milk contamination and aids in understanding the many forms of hygiene that should be maintained in the dairy.
