A BRIEF REVIEW OF ADVANCES IN CAMEL MILK CHEESEMAKING

Abstract

 Camel breeding is a traditional form of animal husbandry in the desert and semi-desert regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan is one of the leading countries in camel breeding in the global livestock sector, and demand for camel milk products in domestic and foreign markets is growing. At the present stage, the most important condition for the sustainable economic development of countries and ensuring food security for their populations is the intensive development of the agro-industrial complex. Cheese is one of the most common foods in the world. It is known as a full-fledged nutritious food product and an excellent source of many key nutrients, suitable for people of different ages. Processing and production of dairy products made of camel milk, such as cheese, is technically more complicated than the products from other domestic dairy animals.
