Milk & Milk Products: From Farms to International Markets

Milk is a white liquid food produced by lactating mammals. The young ones rely on milk as their primary source of nutrition before they are ready to digest solid food. Even when they do start consuming solid food, they are still given full-cream milk to meet their calorie needs. The origin of milk can be traced back to 10,000 years ago during the Neolithic Revolution, when humans used to survive on hunting and gathering for gathering food. They started observing animals and were able to collect milk from goats and aurochs (ancestral cow breeds) in pottery vessels. Humans also consume milk in various forms, both fresh and processed. Some of the processed milk products are butter, cheese, whey (formed along with curd after coagulation of milk), condensed milk, dried milk, yogurt, etc. The fresh milk comes from multiple sources, and we consume it as cow milk, buffalo milk, goat milk, etc. 

Nowadays, with growing awareness around diet and wellness, many health-conscious individuals have started choosing specific types of milk based on their nutritional needs. For instance, Skim milk contains minimal fat and fewer calories, making it a popular option for those aiming to reduce fat intake. Low-fat milk contains about 1–2% fat and is often chosen by those people who want an alternative to whole milk. Another milk product is Buttermilk, which is known for its tangy flavor and is valued for its digestive-friendly properties. Another widely used form is powdered milk, which is made from dehydrating milk to increase its shelf life. 


We consume milk products every day in our lives, and some of the most consumed ones are yogurt, cheese, butter, ice cream, etc. We consume them in every meal of the day in different forms, like yogurt and fruit meals, cheese sandwiches, or by making our curries of sauces by adding cream and butter to them. This way, we are able to enjoy all the nutritional benefits of milk in various forms. Let's look at what nutrients milk and its products provide us:

Milking the Global Demand for Dairy Products: When Market Trends Meets Technological Advancement

There has been a huge demand for milk and its products all over the world due to the shifting dietary preferences of humans. Therefore, world milk production is expected to increase by 1,6% annually between 2020 and 2029. As per the OECD-FAO report, it is expected to reach 997 million tons in 2029. India has a major contribution to this rising production, as there were around 56 million dairy cows in India in 2020. All this data is primary proof of how the global trade market is continuously witnessing the rising demand for milk and milk products. Some of the specific reasons which are navigating the global mill trade market are as follows:

  • Milk as a natural source of fats and nutrients: Milk contains different types of proteins, and Casein is the major one present in it. Curd and whey are made from the curdling of these proteins when their complexes are disrupted. Keeping these aside, milk also contains vitamins (A, D, E, K, B12), minerals, carbohydrates, and proteins. All of these can significantly promote bone health, support muscle growth, and also help in weight management.

  • Global growth of food service and bakery: As the number of bakeries and restaurants is increasing in multiple countries, it is also bringing a rush of demand for milk and its products, especially butter, cheese, and cream. The baked goods, which are becoming popular all around the world and expanding their varieties, use a lot of butter and cheese to make pastries, brownies, cookies, and other items. The restaurants and hotels need a lot of ingredients that are centered around milk fats. 

  • Technological Advancements in Preservation and Transport: With the introduction of Ultra-high temperature processing techniques, increasing the shelf life of milk has become much easier. All the bacteria are killed in this process, which stops milk from going bad. In terms of packaging, packaging milk in sterile containers (aseptic packaging) also prevents contamination, hence increasing the export rate of milk. 

  • Increased demand for milk products: Consumers are now more conscious of their health, which is why the world is seeing a rise in milk products like lactose-free milk, organic milk, A2 milk, etc. This helps them in cutting saturated fats, avoiding bloating, etc. Various options for these milks are being produced in the market in the ready-to-drink and powdered forms.



What the Milk and Milk Products Buyers Demand from Suppliers:

When you’re dealing with food items like milk and milk products, it is critical to maintain a high quality. Here is what milk importers or milk product importers look for from suppliers:

  • Milk: sweetish taste, white in color, faintly acidic reaction, should not clot or precipitate when mixed with ethanol
  • Raw Milk: free of debris, abnormal color, and should have low bacterial count
  • Butter: minimum fat content (25% as per FSSAI standards), limited moisture level
  • Cheese: Consistent texture, free of mold (except blue cheese), even color, and should not have discoloration 
  • Yogurt: mimum added sugar, smooth and creamy, should be free from extraneous matter (mold, yeast, etc). 
  • Paneer: pleasing and uniform white color, firm in shape, crumbly texture
  • Buttermilk: Creamy, high in probiotics, should not have any clumps or excessive liquid
