“…In the current study, the concentration of the sum of the FA C12, C14 and C16 decreased from 41.09 g·100 g −1 fat in milk fat in winter to 34.94 g·100 g −1 fat in milk fat in summer. This is an important benefit of summer milk for human health, since it is now known that only C12, C14 and C16 adversely affect plasma LDL levels [6,30]. The concentration of SFA was also negatively correlated with increasing percentages of GBF (r = 0.76, P < 0.001) and altitude (r = 0.39, P < 0.001) (Tab.…”

-The influence of typical feeds from five mountain regions of Switzerland (altitude of grass-based feed (GBF) during the summer and winter seasons: 1247 (± 465) m and 1136 (± 310) m, respectively) on the fatty acid (FA) composition of bovine milk fat was studied over one year (from May 2004 to April 2005. Compared with winter, summer milk had a significantly lower concentration of saturated FA (SFA) (-8.6%) and significantly higher contents of monounsaturated FA (MUFA) (+19.9%), polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) (+21.7%), conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) (+70.1%), and trans FA other than CLA (+56.7%). Summer and winter milk from mountains did not significantly differ with respect to the contents of branched, n-3 and n-6 FA. However, the content of the main n-3 FA (α-linolenic acid) was significantly higher in summer than in winter milk and its content was positively correlated with increasing percentages of GBF and altitude. milk fat / fatty acid / mountain milk / winter milk / summer milk

Tradit ional farming on agricultural land under the standard soil and natural-climatic conditions within the EU is based on the structure of the polygastric livestock (especially cattle), which ensures the complex carbon recycling and its return to arable soil. In the last 15 years, we have been witnessing to a sharp decline in the number of dairy cows in the Czech Republic. Th is fact has resulted in certain destabilising factors that have disrupted the stability of the biological system. Breeding dairy cows and its profi tability is a function of the conditions for the realisation of milk production. Th is paper examines these aspects within a complex of factors from the use of milk production to the structure of the decision making process and it classifi es and quantifi es the individual problems from the perspective of the multi-criteria analysis.Key words: role of milk in human nutrition, quality of milk production, producer's strategic decision making capacity, applied methods of multi-criteria analysis, quality of milk production, quantitative factor analysis

“…In the present study nutritional conditions and the stage of lactation were unified for both breeds. It has to be emphasized that attaching too much importance to the level of cholesterol in milk may lead to a lack of appreciation of its other functional components (Maijala, 2000).…”

Abstract. Studies regarding the composition of milk fat are mostly conducted on dairy breeds. The aim of our studies was to evaluate the fatty acid, cholesterol and phospholipid amount in the milk of two non-dairy sheep breeds. The study was conducted on 60 ewes (Żelaźnieńska strain of Polish Lowland sheep -30 ewes; Wrzosówka breed -30 ewes) from one flock which were kept under the same conditions and maintenance. There were no differences in the amount of the basic components of milk in these two breeds. In the lipid fraction of Wrzosówka sheep (a more primitive breed), higher amounts of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (P ≤ 0.05), a higher amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) n-3 (P ≤ 0.01) and a lower ratio of n-6 / n-3 (P ≤ 0.01) were recorded compared toŻelaźnieńska sheep. The milk oḟ Zelaźnieńska sheep had a higher amount of cholesterol (P ≤ 0.05). There were no differences in concentrations of phospholipids.With regard to the two non-dairy sheep breeds, a higher amount of PUFAs n-3 and a more favorable ratio of n-6 / n-3 was observed in the milk of the more primitive breed (i.e., Wrzosówka sheep).
