Food hygiene aims to ensure food is safe for consumption by preventing contamination and spoilage at all stages from production to consumption. It includes hygiene practices for different foods like milk, meat, fish, eggs, fruits and vegetables. Milk can become contaminated during milking, handling or storage and cause diseases. Meat may transmit tapeworms or other parasites if not handled hygienically. Fish spoil quickly so signs of freshness like rigidity and bright gills are important. Eggs can become contaminated through cracked shells. Food handlers must maintain hygiene like clean hands and covering hair to prevent spreading infections. Proper sanitation of food premises is also important for food hygiene.
Clean Milk Production Practices and its Management in India by Sunil Meenasunil meena
?
Milk is the main product from a dairy enterprise, produced basically as food for human consumption. A dairy farmer must, therefore, aim at maximising on milk output from his/her dairy herd. At the same time the farmer must ensure that milk is produced in clean and hygienic conditions so that it is fit for human consumption.
From public’s health point of view, milk is a very good media for bacterial and other micro-organisms development. As such, disease hazard in public can easily be predisposed by infected milk during production, handling and marketing.
Clean Milk Production Practices
Source Hygiene and Preparations
Check for mastitis with a strip cup or any other method.
Isolate sick animals and milk them last (Their milk should not be mixed with good milk).
Wash udder, teats and flank of the animal with clean water preferably add a disinfectant. Wipe with a clean cloth.
Always groom and cut the hair around the under.
Dispose fore-milk
Tie tails of troublesome animals when milking.
Milker’s Hygiene
Milker should: –
Be healthy and clean
Maintain short fingernails and hair cut (ladies can cover their heads when milking as guard to falling hair)
Avoid smoking during milking time.
Be quick and efficient
Milk continuously (no interruptions).
Milking Environment
The shed can be permanent or movable
Where possible provide a cement floor for easy and proper cleaning.
Water should drain easily and away from the shed
Provide a clean feed trough, water trough and protected store.
There should be a good source of water nearby
The shed should be located away from bad smells and odours
It should be cleaned after every milking
Livestock should not have access to the shed during the day
Utensils
a. Types
Use seamless utensils preferably aluminium or stainless steel
Use cans, sufurias or metal buckets in milking
Provide a good washing place
Washing procedure
Rinse excess milk with cold and clean water
Scrub with a brush using hot water mixed with a detergent e.g. soap or detergent
Rinse with cold water and place the utensils to dry on a rack upside down during the day.
c. Storage
Utensils should be stored at night in a safe and clean place, which is well ventilated.
Milking
a. Preparation
Do not excite the animals
Regularize milking intervals
b. Method
Squeeze the teat and do not pull.
All milk should be got from the under i.e. avoid incomplete milking
Use a teat dip after milking
Milk Handling
a. Filtering
Use a white filter cloth
Filter immediately after milking
Disinfect, wash and dry the filter cloth after use
b. Storage
Store milk in cool and clean place
The room used to store milk should without other materials such as chemicals and should also be lockable.
c. Marketing or Disposal
Milk should be delivered to the market as soon as possible
It is advisable to delivery milk early in the morning and evening to avoid hot periods of the day.
