With regard to the analytical characteristics of the milk, the reference parameters have been updated as a result of the series of tests carried out by the official laboratory, the centre to which the samples collected on the farms are sent. Lactose content and density will no longer be determined as they do not affect the quality of the finished product and their analysis was based on a production method which no longer reflects the developments which have taken place on farms.
However, the acidity of the milk is measured by determining the pH level and not in Dornic grades, and a change to this effect is being made in the specifications.
Additionally, as a result of technological progress made in the production industries, the process is carried out with a greater level of control in terms of the key parameters for final quality, and therefore the earlier version has become obsolete in terms of some of the stages of production.
The following part is being amended correspondingly:
