“…For milk constituents, the highest percentages of non-compliance with the minimum requirements for current legislation were 14.2% for fat and 8.5% for total solids (Table 3). On the other hand, Candiotto et al (2020) in bovine milk farms in the southern region, they verified only 4% of non-compliance of the farms in relation to the current legislation for fat, however, close to the results obtained for total solids (9%).…”

“…In a study conducted by Candiotto et al (2020) in small properties in the southern region of Brazil, the authors found that 56.1% and 56.8% of the samples taken from October 2014 to July 2016 did not meet the Brazilian regulations for SCC and SPC, respectively. Esses resultados se aproximam dos resultados encontrados no presente trabalho para a SPC (53%).…”

Taking into account the increasing search for quality milk production, the objective was to evaluate the milk quality of 33 properties located in the northwest region of Paraná in 2018, relating them to current legislation (normative instruction 76). The results of standard plate count (SPC), somatic cell count (SCC), fat, non-fat solids, total solids, lactose and protein were tabulated. There was non-compliance related to the legislation of 53% of the samples for SPC and 21.8% for SCC. In the analysis of geometric means, 27.3% presented three consecutive months above the acceptable limits for SCC and 63.6% for SPC. The multiple correspondence analysis of the nonconformity results showed two processes involving, each, three strongly associated variables: SCC, fat and total solids and SCC, lactose and total solids. These associations came from 56.3% of the variability contained in the data set, demonstrating that high SCC results negatively affect the percentages of fat and total solids, in addition to lactose and total solids and that despite technological advances, many producers still find it difficult to meet the legislation.

“…We measured five different characteristics of technification in dairy production (Table 1), following the milk production systems prevalent in Brazil [39]: (i) productivity [40], measured by daily milk production; (ii) feed management [41,42], measured by primary forage diet, fertilizer pasture management, time of supplementary feed, criterium to supplement, and addition of vitamins to supplement; (iii) milking management [43], measured by milking method, milking frequency, and farm infrastructure for milking; (iv) sanitary control [44], measured by cleaning of udder before milking and CMT test (California Mastitis Test); (v) genetics and breeding [45], measured by breeding program for productivity improvement, selective breeding method and pregnancy diagnosis. We used daily milk production as a measure of productivity because farmers had no information on milk production per cow.…”

Technification in Dairy Farms May Reconcile Habitat Conservation in a Brazilian Savanna Region

The assessment of the relationships between farm management systems and nature conservation may help in the design of more efficient strategies to uphold economic benefits and biodiversity conservation. To our knowledge, this is the first work in Brazil to study the relationship between farm conservation status and technification level. Here, we test the hypothesis that dairy farms with higher levels of technification have a higher percentage of natural vegetation and connectivity, and that differences in environment features between farms explain their conservation status. We obtained variables related to the level of technification such as feed, milking, sanitary control and breeding management systems. We show that farmers with a higher level of technification, such as artificial insemination in cattle breeding, tended to conserve a higher percentage of natural vegetation, as well as larger farms with a higher percentage of riparian forest. The adoption of artificial insemination is associated with other technification systems such as a forage diet, milking method and frequency and sanitary control. It is also significantly related to higher milk productivity. Our novel results point to a positive effect of technification on the conservation of natural vegetation, suggesting that economic incentives and programs aimed at increasing technification in cattle breeding may increase dairy production and conservation within the study area. Our findings also show an effect of larger areas of riparian forests, which are protected by Brazilian policy, in the conservation status of dairy farms.
