Under free ranging conditions, the frequency of drinking water by camel depends on a number of factors such as the ambient temperature, the water content of the feed and the physiological status of the animal. Lactating females obviously require more water than dry cows, bulls or castrates. It is said that throughout the winter period, camels may not have access to free water. There is an historial record held by camels in Sudan where it was noted 86 years ago that a large herd of camels at a well on May 11, 1917 were drinking free water for the. | Raw Milk Production By TIM WIGHTMAN - Courtesy of Farm-to-Consumer Foundation Photo courtesy of Heidi Eastham Rucker Farm Virginia Introduction Raw Milk Production was developed in cooperation with Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund to guide farmers engaged in small scale pasture-based raw milk production supplied to consumers either through direct sales or through cow-boarding herd-share or farm-share programs. The growth of raw milk production has been very rapid during the last several years reflecting consumer demand for a healthy milk product as well as the considerable economic benefits for the farmer. Raw milk is thus proving to be a boon to both farmer and consumer sparking a renewal in small farming in many parts of the country and forging important bonds between farmers and their customers. Even though government and health officials have condemned raw milk as dangerous and unhealthy unprocessed milk is actually a very safe food possessing its own built-in safety net of numerous anti-microbial components most of which are inactivated during pasteurization. These components have the triple function of killing pathogenic microorganisms strengthening the immune system and acting as carriers for vitamins and minerals so that these nutrients are completely absorbed. These components ensure the safety of raw milk under a range of diverse conditions and broad variations in levels of cleanliness. Nevertheless it is imperative that farmers providing raw milk to consumers pay scrupulous attention to the health of their cows the cleanliness of their barn and milking equipment and their processes for milking and storing the product. This high level of care is needed for two reasons. Firstly the amazing anti-microbial systems in raw milk can be overwhelmed in situations where the cows are unhealthy or when a strong dose of pathogens is introduced into the milk. But secondly as a raw milk producer you have an obligation to all other raw milk producers to maintain a .
