When it comes to define the structure of milk production industry, it is largely consisted of small-scale milk producers who generally rely on conventional ways of cattle examination, milk extraction, milk processing, and transport to the dairy firms. The dynamics of this industry vary greatly among various regions and countries basis the regional taste preferences, dietary habits, culinary traditions, and sector demand.

This small-scale processing system in developing countries generally employs conventional or semi-conventional methods, but products need to contest with those of the systematized dairy industry (large-scale manufacturers or multinationals). Majorities of small-scale processors do not get access to training, and understand by watching, hearing and executing. As these industrial units perform without formal skills they suffer extreme risks and of restricted cost-effectiveness. Small-scale processing equipment for sterilization, wrapping in plastic packets, and butter, yogurt and cheese development exists, but small-scale processors are found to dearth of access to the equipment they desperately need.

In recent times, several new technologies have been introduced in the market that are poised to add extreme levels of convenient, productivity to milk production sector. Though these technologies have already been used by large-scale milk processors, they are gradually making their way to mid and low-level milk processors. For example, there is a technology named temperature monitoring systems that continuously keeps a check on the temperature of the milk stored and alerts if temperature goes beyond the set level.

Similarly, there is bulk milk cooler that maintains large quantities of milk at ideal temperature to maintain its nutritional value. This results in enhanced storage time of milk in healthy state. And it is not meant for tech-savvy people who want to do something new with their business but technology is meant to deliver immense help to industry people who always strive to achieve maximum efficiency out of their efforts.

For most of the developing countries, milk production comprises a major share of the overall industry growth. Therefore, there is a great scope of the latest milk production technologies in these regions. The latest data collection and analysis technologies have made it possible for milk producers to take a deeper and more precise look at their endeavors in order to achieve the optimum resource utilization.

In tropical and sub-tropical regions, milk production volumes tend to be higher in damp conditions as compared to the dry season, particularly from animals that depend greatly on grazing. So, have a look at these technologies and take your dairy business on new heights.
