The dairy industry so far in 2011: Top-5 news stories

The top five most read news stories so far this year take the reader right across the industry from the latest in ice cream technology to escalating dairy prices.

At the top of the pile is a study exploring the differences between organic and conventional milk – a topic that never fails to attract researchers and readers alike.

Below that is a diverse mix of stories, including an interview with the head of Fonterra in Europe about the New Zealand dairy’s expansion plans in the continent.

Other news articles to attract reader attention include a pledge from the US cheese industry to cut sodium levels, FAO figures on the accelerating pace of dairy price rises and a study on the power of high pressure processing to improve ice cream.
