  5. Land O’Lakes Story of NFDM • Product Development and Packaging • Selection of Processors • Quality Control/Building Local Capacities • Application to Other Commodities

  6. Product Development and Packaging • NFDM: shelf life of 1 year (+/-) in highly controlled environment • Converted to liquid milk: shelf life of few hours • UHT milk – shelf life of six months • Specialized process and unique packaging

Selection of Processors • Fact-finding mission: Land O’Lakes, Tetra Pak, local industry leaders • Audit of the facilities: building, collection systems, lab, testing procedures, general layout, equipment, packaging, process lines, utilities, engine room, refrigeration, warehouses • Sanitation procedures and effluent discharge • Environmental considerations • Recall procedures

  8. Quality Control/Building Local Capacities - GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) • HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) • Food Borne Illness • Certification by Land O’Lakes • Six-month audit of each facility • Handling of finished product in warehouses and schools • Testing at every level – product safety

  9. Application to Other food products /Commodities • R&D: Processes, chemical treatment and packaging • Canning and ultralow blanching • Sealing trays with modified applications (MAP) • Gas flush (nitrogen, CO2) to remove oxygen • Aseptic Packaging • Fruit and Fresh vegetables – Ozone wash vs. Chlorine • Calcium treatment that extends the shelf life of melons • Way to control hormone levels in Tomatoes • Use of antimicrobial systems, fungal amylases, Nisin and reduced PH, … • Various types of Coating and Films
