| Popis: | Hygiene and sanitation, which are of great importance for the protection of human. Beside this quality and quantity of the milk is very important for human health. The aim of this project is to develop a training model in raw milk hygiene in Aydın province, and to increase knowledge, skills and competencies of vocational/professional groups in raw milk production. Two surveys were conducted for the farm workers to be trained within the scope of the project. Firstly, a demonstrative survey was conducted for the farms where milk hygiene training was provided. The education satisfaction survey was conducted for the people who were educated after the seminar. The surveys were prepared by the project executives and the questions were answered by face to face interview method. The milk samples of the study were collected from 157 dairy farm bulk tanks located in Aydin province, before the beginning of the project and after training courses. The milk samples were analyzed for Total Viable Count (TVC) and Somatic Cell Count (SCC). In conclusion, 11% of tank milk samples were below the norm value of 100000cfu/mL out of 157 farms. It is also seen that 27 farms reduced their SCC values below 400000cells/mL out of 56 farms with a norm value of ≥400000cells/mL after hygiene training. When the results were evaluated in general, hygiene was improved by 11% in average TVC value and 1% in SCC value after milking hygiene education. |
