Upute o mužnji za veću i bolju proizvodnju mlijeka
This professional handbook by Dr. Berislav Majić provides practical guidance on proper milking technique, the hygiene of the udder and equipment, and the preservation of milk quality and the health of dairy cows on the farm.
The handbook "Instructions on Milking" (Upute o mužnji), authored by the distinguished Croatian veterinary expert and professor Dr. Berislav Majić and published in 1986, serves as an exceptionally important and practical guide for cattle farmers, dairy producers, veterinarians, and students of agronomy and veterinary medicine. In this work, the author addresses all key aspects of proper milking—clearly, professionally, and accessibly—with the goal of maximizing the production of high-quality milk while safeguarding livestock health. The book provides a detailed examination of the physiology of the mammary gland, the preparation of cows for milking, and the correct techniques for both manual and machine milking. Special emphasis is placed on maintaining high standards of hygiene—ranging from cleaning the udder and disinfecting equipment to the proper storage and cooling of milk—to prevent contamination and preserve its nutritional value. Beyond the techniques themselves, Dr. Majić covers the prevention and early detection of inflammatory processes (mastitis), which pose the most significant economic and health-related risks in dairy farming. For decades, this handbook has served as an essential resource for improving standards in domestic milk production and implementing modern veterinary-sanitary measures on farms.
