However, the increase in sheep numbers over recent years, together with the intensification of farming methods, may lead to a rise in incidence unless stock owners, particularly sheep farmers, take steps to control the disease.

The Influence Of Hot Brine On The Calcium Content, Score, And Physical Properties Of Low-Fat, Cheddar-Like Cheese, Robert V. Ogden

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Two factors that are important in the production of the typical body and texture of cheddar cheese are acid development and milk fat content. When either of these is absent or present in less-than-normal amounts, the resulting cheese shows marked defects of curdiness and firmness.

When acid development in a vat of cheese is arrested, it is referred to as a "dead" vat. The cheese from this vat may be salvaged by use of the hot brine method of treatment.

Leaflet No 1000 - Rate Of Milking With Machines - Further Results From Western Australian Herds, R. A. Bettenay

Bulletins 1 - 2999

IN an earlier article by this Department (Vol. XXVI No. 2 PP. 99-104) some introductory remarks were made on a study being conducted on the rate of milking by machine, and preliminary findings were recorded. The conclusion was reached that the rate of milking on most farms was too slow, it being considered that in the vicinity of five minutes per cow should be sufficient under machine milking and that, if the teat cups were left on for a longer period than this, damage to the udder was likely to follow.
