Overview: This article provides information about the dairy production in Saskatchewan province. The dairy industry is primarily based on the sale of milk and cream, although the sale of veal calves, semen, embryos and live animals also contributes to the economy. Fresh milk is a highly nutritious product. Whole milk can be processed to produce fluid milk (whole, 2%, 1%, skim and chocolate), cheese, yogurt, sour cream, cottage cheese and butter. Milk contains a good balance of protein (3.1%), fat (3.7%), and lactose (4.8%). The remaining 88% of milk is water.
