In general, small scale processors must conform to all regulations that large dairy processing plants comply with in order to provide dairy products that are safe and wholesome for the consumer. The most critical point is the pasteurization process.
The regulations for pasteurizing milk are found in the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance at the link to FDA’s web site found on our dairy web pages. Other requirements for the construction and operation of a processing plant are also found there.
Application forms for a Kansas dairy manufacturing plant license can be downloaded at our KDA dairy program web pages. Contact this office by phone or e-mail if you have any other questions.
