Summary of Symposium

Department of Dairy Science, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Blacksburg 24061

ABSTRACT

"Environment and quality of life" are terms that may be "keynote words" for the decade of the seventies and perhaps will aptly describe much of the sociological and scientific activities for the years immediately ahead. Quality is not a new word to the dairy industry. The industry has always been quality conscious and improvement of product quality has been evident as one of the primary goals. Pesticides and chemicals are also not new terms to the animal industries. Our industry is aware of the seriousness of organochlorine chemical contamination in milk products because of events of the past decade. We must continue to keep pace with technological developments and use modern approaches to the solution of modern problems. The problem of maintaining a safe food supply is undeniably very important. There exists a risk when pesticides are used, regardless of the type but the need for continued use is certain.
