      abstract = {Filtration separates milk components for use as  ingredients in new products or new manufacturing processes.  Technology developments in filtration and new manufacturing  processes are certain to shape the future of the dairy  industry. Some ingredients, such as milk protein  concentrate (MPC), casein and caseinate, are almost all  imported due to lower prices in foreign markets. When  domestic production becomes economically feasible,  cooperatives are potential producers of milk protein  ingredients, especially in the West region. Research and  development, product development and marketing, acquiring  manufacturing and processing technology and equity  financing are cooperatives’ major challenges. A brief  historical review of tomatoes shows how technology has  caused profound changes to an industry that strikingly  resembles milk.},
