Comparative Insights into Bovine and Non-Bovine Milk: Composition, Technology, and Nutritional Perspectives
Abstract: Milk has long been regarded as a universal food, providing essential nutrients to humans across cultures and generations. While bovine milk, particularly from cows and buffaloes, dominates global dairy production and consumption, non-bovine milks, such as those from goats, sheep, camels, donkeys, and yaks, also play a significant role in human nutrition, especially in regions where they are traditionally consumed. The comparative study of bovine and non-bovine milk is increasingly …

Comparative Analysis of Fermented Milk Prepared Using Natural Fermentation Starters
Abstract: Background: Fermented milk products are a staple of traditional diets and offer considerable nutritional and health benefits due to their probiotic and bioactive compounds. While conventional starters, like old buttermilk are widely used, alternative plant-based starters, like clove and green chili stalk, have potential advantages, including enhanced antioxidant properties and cultural relevance. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the fermentation dynamics of milk inoculated with clove, green chili stalk, and …

Strengthening Resilient Dairy Supply Chains in the Tropics: Addressing Infrastructure, Technology, Policy Interventions, and Product Diversifications for Sustainable Development
Abstract: The resilience of dairy supply chains is critical for achieving sustainable agricultural development, particularly in tropical regions where challenges, such as climate variability, resource constraints, and market inefficiencies, persist. This review explores strategies to strengthen dairy supply chains by addressing key aspects of infrastructure, technological innovations, policy interventions, and product diversification. A comprehensive analysis highlights the need for robust milk collection systems, cold chain infrastructure, and efficient transportation networks to …

The Role of Breastfeeding in Early Childhood and Maternal Health: A Perspective
Abstract: Breastfeeding is globally recognized as the optimal method of infant feeding, offering unparalleled benefits for both child survival and maternal health. Breast milk provides a balanced mix of essential nutrients, bioactive compounds, and protective antibodies, making it the gold standard for early nutrition. Exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life, followed by continued breastfeeding with complementary foods for up to two years or longer, is recommended by the …

Toxicokinetics of Herbicide Residues in Green Forages: Implications for Fertility, Health, and Welfare of Dairy Cows
Abstract: Herbicide residues in green roughages have emerged as a significant concern in dairy production due to their potential toxicokinetic interactions and detrimental effects on reproductive health. While herbicides are widely used to control weeds and enhance fodder yield, their persistence in forage poses a latent risk to dairy cattle fertility. This review explores the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of herbicide residues in dairy cows, emphasizing their bioaccumulation and systemic …
