Following the announcement of the fifth round of government purchasing for the Farmers-to-Families Food Box program milk futures went up. The program was announced on January 4 and deliveries will take place through the end of April. USDA will once more deliver boxes containing fresh produce, fluid milk, and dairy products, as well as meat and seafood. Up until now, the Agency distributed 133 million food boxes to support American farmers and families.

USDA underlines that the bigger variety of cheese will be acceptable. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture will purchase $1.5 billion worth of food for nationwide distribution.

On the other hand, decreases in production were in WMP, lactose as well as whey powders – WPC 80, WPI. The most significant drop was in lactose – from 514 to 470 (-8.6%).

Aspetti tecnici
Il latte UHT viene prodotto riscaldando il latte a circa 140ᵒC per 2-5 secondi al fine di sterilizzare il prodotto ed eliminare la crescita batterica che causa il deterioramento del latte. Durante la produzione del latte UHT si verifica una reazione di Maillard che porta a un cambiamento di colore, sapore e/o odore. Dopo l’apertura, deve essere conservato in frigorifero.
Applicazione
Il latte UHT può essere utilizzato come prodotto di base per la maggior parte dei segmenti lattiero-caseari. A seconda del processo, viene utilizzato nella produzione di yogurt, burri, formaggi, creme e molto altro.
