From Milk To Curd: Molecular Assembly And Microstructure In Complex Dairy Products

Abstract

This project will benefit rural and regional dairy communities and manufacturers. It will help offset the negative effects of drought and climate change by increasing productivity, yield and innovation. It should generate at least ten million dollars in increased dairy sales and provide new domestic and export market opportunities. The tools for increased product consistency and international research links will decrease risks in manufacturing and increase competitiveness. Social benefits include increased returns to dairy farmers, improved employment and increased spending in rural and regional areas. The project will also train engineers, addressing a recognised skills shortage and increas..
