9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you're looking to do more[br]to keep your emissions down,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you should probably start [br]with what you pour in your coffee.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Yep, I'm talking about milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One researcher found that milk, [br]cheese, and ice cream from cows

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is responsible for about 3.6%[br]of global emissions.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The almonds in your almond milk,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
take about six times more water to grow[br]than the same amount of oats.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Which is one reason why oat milk[br]is now everywhere.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Well, those aren't[br]the only milk alternatives.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There's also one [br]that has an added benefit,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
plus, it has humps.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
ALT MILK

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So now what we're going to do

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is take a little bit of[br]milk out of each tit,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and we're going to have a look at that[br]milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(Arielle) Okay,[br]I'm going to give this a try.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I am getting quite-- [br]Oh, there we go.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
All right, I'm milking camel.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(Lauren) The next two, the next two [br]we got to milk, yeah.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(Arielle) <i>This is a camel dairy farm</i>

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
<i>and it's in Australia.</i>

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
*When Lauren Brisbane started at six years[br]ago. It was the only one in the country.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's been difficult

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because Australians aren't naturally[br]adventurous particularly in new food types.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
In the 1860s Afghan camel, herders[br]were hired to help explore the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Desert Landscapes bringing[br]thousands of camels with them.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But with the Advent of trains and[br]cars, camels soon became obsolete.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So they were released into the wild[br]fast forward to the early 2000s

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in Australia, was home to[br]more than a million camels,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which was a problem because those[br]camels cause 10 million dollars

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in environmental damage each[br]year according to the government.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So officials tried to stop them by[br]killing thousands of camels in 2010.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lauren saw this as an opportunity[br]to turn camels into a cash cow.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This worldwide need for camel milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It doesn't cause a lot of the dysfunction,[br]or the allergy reaction that you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
get from, you know, dairy, cow dairy milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So it's easier to digest research[br]on camel. Milk is still very scarce.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There's only limited evidence to suggest[br]that camel milk might have unique,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
nutritional properties and overall,[br]the jury still out at $25. L.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's also not cheap Luke. I think it's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And C because camels don't[br]produce a lot of milk and the way

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that you operated areas[br]completely different,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but it's a very high-end healthy product[br]and to produce that properly is expensive.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Camel milk has been popular in the Middle[br]East and Africa for thousands of years

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and Australia is nowhere. Close to[br]cracking the list of top producers.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Laura thinks she can help expand the products[br]reach Beyond, just being a fat though.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, we had a chat with[br]her target audience.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Would you be willing to try the camel[br]milk today? Yeah. All right. Sure.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What do you think it actually[br]tastes a lot like goats milk without

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the pungent taste. Yeah,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but you have a little bit of milk[br]are if they tell you the stash.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Would you pay $25 for a liter of camel-milk?[br]Maybe once and then see how I go,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
maybe? Okay, that's like four times,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the amount of get almond milk and I[br]guess as a novelty, it's all right,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Laurens Farm isn't the[br]only one of its kind

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
around a dozen other camel. Dairies[br]have popped up in Australia since 2014.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And the industry is growing[br]according to one report

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its projected to grow by 8% globally[br]each year, for the next seven years.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's a projection that someone like Jeff[br]flood co-owner of Summerland camel, farm

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is really banking on nearly[br]eight hundred camels. Now,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
besides our operation here represents[br]pretty much 60% of the industry on in total

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in volume. So it's a huge R&amp;D project here[br]about. Well, how do we build the heard?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We've got to take a feral[br]animal and convince it that it's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
safe to be here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's okay to give up milks.[br]It was a whole training

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and domestication process[br]in the front. Enjoy.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So this forms a super clean room?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Okay, and there are some some[br]stuff in jars and some yeah,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
some Tupperware. What's going on here?[br]This is all that cheese prototyping.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So this was this top secret.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Yes. A lot of that is actually true.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nobody's done stuff with camel[br]milk work, where you have. So,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for example, who is anyone made a Parmesan[br]cheese out of a coma. Well, we have.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So this is, this morning's milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That is so white. It is[br]so white color is very

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
giving you a huge also[br]looks completely different.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Thank you so much.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And I was really interesting.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It definitely tastes like milk. It[br]doesn't taste strong like goats milk

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
little bit on the salty side.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's really clean.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What excited really clean mouth feel[br]so it spreads evenly across the mouth.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The fat molecules.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Like I said, but really small

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and you get the full flavor of[br]the milk all the way through.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What is the future of this industry?[br]Look like I would hope that in about

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Years time everybody. In[br]Australia, has tasted camel milk,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
whether it's a gelato or cheese or[br]milk, or they've used the product.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That's got camel milk in there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Maybe the skincare range is or something[br]nutraceutical product that uses power

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
scaling camel milk production isn't easy

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because of their low and sometimes[br]unpredictable daily yield

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but Jeff's Farm is trying to do just that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Laurens approach to camel, milk[br]production as a bit different though.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She puts a lot of emphasis on cuddle time,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which she says helps the[br]camels feel more comfortable,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and more willing to give up their milk.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Every afternoon camel cuddling[br]is part of the job really?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Well, that is quite a burden.[br]It is, it's terrible. Horrible.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Be very hard for you. Yeah, very was[br]really great coming from a perspective that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we weren't Dairy people, because[br]we looked at camels as camels.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And we looked at their needs and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
he loves to cuddle. Hello.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Okay, this is Rosie.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And from your perspective, is this doing[br]well, weiwei breaking, even at the moment,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and when we just popping[br]over into the profit sector,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so when you start anything,[br]it's always difficult,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but it certainly moving along in a[br]nice Direction. Let's put it that way.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Today is all about versatility. We're[br]going to talk milk Alternatives.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That's right. It's not[br]just about Pals ball, baby.
