For many business owners who operate dairy factories, they usually face a common choice, which is raw milk and dairy products. What kind of products have better market prospects? From the perspective of milk production line manufacturers, what kind of milk products have better market prospects?


In fact, as long as we think about the problem from multiple angles, we will have our own correct answer:


1. First of all, you must check which dairy products are very popular in your market? What if you can accept the market price?

Like any enterprise, it all depends on the needs of the market and how you deliver it to customers. First, farmers need to conduct market research to determine a product that is currently unavailable or insufficient to meet market demand. Then, the farmer needs to determine the manufacturing, marketing and distribution costs compared to the price he or she can sell. Importantly, do you think you are ready to run a small dairy business?


2. Since any dairy products are operators in the food industry, please know whether there are any regulations in your market.

In the United States, many states do not allow the direct sale of raw milk to consumers. In many states that allow the sale of raw milk, testing requirements for the sale of raw milk are more stringent than licenses for the sale of processed milk. Many insurance companies in the United States do not guarantee the raw milk sold to consumers. You can sell it to other processors, namely bottlers and cheese manufacturers. Some states do allow the sale of raw milk labeled "for pet use only", which is helpful, especially for dairy goat farms, because goat milk is often considered the preferred milk for orphaned kittens and puppies.


3. If market regulations allow, and you happen to be a farmer, raw milk is the best product.

There is no doubt that the easiest way for a small dairy farmer to start is to sell raw milk directly from the farm, because the law allows the sale of raw milk. However, there are some disadvantages in selling raw liquid milk, that is, shelf-life restrictions and flavor problems. If you are selling raw milk, you must throw away the milk that has failed or lost the fresh flavor of the farm. It must be healthy and clean. The milk processing and cooling equipment must be kept clean and in good working condition.

4. If raw milk is not your final product, or if you want to protect your raw milk from being wasted, you can process it into different dairy products:

To sum up, if local regulations permit and you can afford the early capital investment, you can convert fresh milk into longer and more reliable products, such as butter, cheese, aquaculture products, ice cream and ice cream. In this way, you will have more space to sell your products, and all your investment is an efficient milk production line, which will continuously produce milk products from endogenous sources for a long time in the future, so as to continue to create profits for you.
