Abstract

A milk supply chain (MSC) is an operational framework that integrates dairy farmers, suppliers, milk outlets, retailers and users to deliver the milk from the producer to end users. Domestic consumption of milk from 17.0 million tonnes (MT) in the year 1950 increased to 221.6 MT in the year 2022−2023 (Department of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry Dairying, 2023). Now the Indian dairy Sector has become the largest milk production country across the globe. This article aims to review an in-depth analysis of the selected literature corpus, providing a better understanding of a subject domain. More than 300 articles or research papers were retrieved from various journals of production engineering, clinical and medical journals on pertinent topics through academic literature and publishers and were systematically studied and classified. It also gives better insights about publications concerning possible issues related to the number of themes, sub-themes covered in individual journals, future scope, the methodology adopted, number of methods used and publication trends. The literature suggests that milk intake helps prevent various health ailments, contrary to other non-epidemic diseases in humans. Inclusive authors discuss the literature on the trade-off between sustainability and risks or challenges in the MSC.

Keywords
