- Abstract
- This study was performed to provide baseline data for developing strategies for expanding the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) certification rate using an awareness survey of dairy farmers. A 44-item questionnaire was used to survey randomly selected respondents comprising 84 HACCP-certified and 75 noncertified dairy farms. The quality of raw milk in terms of bacterial and somatic cell count in HACCP-certified farms was statistically (P < 0.05) higher compared with the milk in noncertified farms. Similarly, milk fat and milk protein were statistically (P < 0.05) superior in HACCP-certified farms. The study finds that the practical barriers to implementing HACCP include inadequate financial assistance, incentive programmes, HACCP consulting and education, consumer awareness and knowledge about HACCP-certified products, streamlined recording systems, and farm-oriented mobile operations and maintenance systems. These findings can contribute to the development strategies to increase the rate of HACCP certification of dairy farms around the world.
