Comparison of Cows' Milk inTerms of Quantity and Content Raised under Organic and Conventional Conditions

Abstract

Intensive agriculture has caused serious adverse effects on human and animal health and serious environmental damage. Organic agriculture has developed as a reaction to the negative effects of intensive agriculture. According to current data, organic agriculture is carried out in 181 countries on an area of 69.8 million hectares and the market volume is estimated to be 100 billion dollars. Milk and dairy products are among the most demanded organic products after fruits and vegetables. Organic dairy cattle farms, differ from conventional dairy farms in that they are based on pasture, contain basic practices for animal welfare and use limited concentration in ration. That difference is expected to cause some differences in milk yield and components. In the present study, it was aimed to compare the milk and milk content of cows raised in organic and conventional condition in accordance with this purpose, it was aimed to compare the milk content and nutrient contents of cows reared under organic and conventional conditions. In the ration, due to the limited use of concentrated feed, the milk of cows raised under organic conditions was being lower. There wasn't any difference between the two management methods in terms of protein, fat and lactose which are the main components of milk. The milk of cows raised in organic conditions was more rich in unsaturated fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid and omega-3, which had many positive effects on human health.
