1
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
If you're looking to do more
to keep your emissions down,
2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you should probably start
with what you pour in your coffee.
3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Yep, I'm talking about milk.
4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
One researcher found that milk,
cheese, and ice cream from cows
5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is responsible for about 3.6%
of global emissions.
6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The almonds in your almond milk,
7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
take about six times more water to grow
than the same amount of oats.
8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Which is one reason why oat milk
is now everywhere.
9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, those aren't
the only milk alternatives.
10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There's also one
that has an added benefit,
11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
plus, it has humps.
12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
ALT MILK
13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So now what we're going to do
14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is take a little bit of
milk out of each tit,
15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we're going to have a look at that
milk.
16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Arielle) Okay,
I'm going to give this a try.
17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I am getting quite--
Oh, there we go.
18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
All right, I'm milking camel.
19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Lauren) The next two, the next two
we got to milk, yeah.
20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Arielle) This is a camel dairy farm
21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and it's in Australia.
22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
*When Lauren Brisbane started at six years
ago. It was the only one in the country.
23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's been difficult
24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because Australians aren't naturally
adventurous particularly in new food types.
25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
In the 1860s Afghan camel, herders
were hired to help explore the
26
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Desert Landscapes bringing
thousands of camels with them.
27
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But with the Advent of trains and
cars, camels soon became obsolete.
28
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So they were released into the wild
fast forward to the early 2000s
29
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in Australia, was home to
more than a million camels,
30
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which was a problem because those
camels cause 10 million dollars
31
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in environmental damage each
year according to the government.
32
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So officials tried to stop them by
killing thousands of camels in 2010.
33
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Lauren saw this as an opportunity
to turn camels into a cash cow.
34
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This worldwide need for camel milk.
35
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It doesn't cause a lot of the dysfunction,
or the allergy reaction that you
36
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
get from, you know, dairy, cow dairy milk.
37
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So it's easier to digest research
on camel. Milk is still very scarce.
38
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There's only limited evidence to suggest
that camel milk might have unique,
39
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
nutritional properties and overall,
the jury still out at $25. L.
40
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's also not cheap Luke. I think it's
41
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And C because camels don't
produce a lot of milk and the way
42
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that you operated areas
completely different,
43
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but it's a very high-end healthy product
and to produce that properly is expensive.
44
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Camel milk has been popular in the Middle
East and Africa for thousands of years
45
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and Australia is nowhere. Close to
cracking the list of top producers.
46
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Laura thinks she can help expand the products
reach Beyond, just being a fat though.
47
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So, we had a chat with
her target audience.
48
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Would you be willing to try the camel
milk today? Yeah. All right. Sure.
49
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What do you think it actually
tastes a lot like goats milk without
50
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the pungent taste. Yeah,
51
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but you have a little bit of milk
are if they tell you the stash.
52
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Would you pay $25 for a liter of camel-milk?
Maybe once and then see how I go,
53
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
maybe? Okay, that's like four times,
54
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the amount of get almond milk and I
guess as a novelty, it's all right,
55
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Laurens Farm isn't the
only one of its kind
56
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
around a dozen other camel. Dairies
have popped up in Australia since 2014.
57
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And the industry is growing
according to one report
58
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
its projected to grow by 8% globally
each year, for the next seven years.
59
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's a projection that someone like Jeff
flood co-owner of Summerland camel, farm
60
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is really banking on nearly
eight hundred camels. Now,
61
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
besides our operation here represents
pretty much 60% of the industry on in total
62
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in volume. So it's a huge R&D project here
about. Well, how do we build the heard?
63
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We've got to take a feral
animal and convince it that it's
64
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
safe to be here.
65
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's okay to give up milks.
It was a whole training
66
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and domestication process
in the front. Enjoy.
67
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this forms a super clean room?
68
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, and there are some some
stuff in jars and some yeah,
69
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
some Tupperware. What's going on here?
This is all that cheese prototyping.
70
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this was this top secret.
71
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Yes. A lot of that is actually true.
72
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Nobody's done stuff with camel
milk work, where you have. So,
73
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for example, who is anyone made a Parmesan
cheese out of a coma. Well, we have.
74
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this is, this morning's milk.
75
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That is so white. It is
so white color is very
76
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
giving you a huge also
looks completely different.
77
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Thank you so much.
78
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I was really interesting.
79
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It definitely tastes like milk. It
doesn't taste strong like goats milk
80
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
little bit on the salty side.
81
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's really clean.
82
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What excited really clean mouth feel
so it spreads evenly across the mouth.
83
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The fat molecules.
84
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like I said, but really small
85
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and you get the full flavor of
the milk all the way through.
86
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What is the future of this industry?
Look like I would hope that in about
87
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Years time everybody. In
Australia, has tasted camel milk,
88
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
whether it's a gelato or cheese or
milk, or they've used the product.
89
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's got camel milk in there.
90
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Maybe the skincare range is or something
nutraceutical product that uses power
91
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
scaling camel milk production isn't easy
92
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because of their low and sometimes
unpredictable daily yield
93
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but Jeff's Farm is trying to do just that.
94
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Laurens approach to camel, milk
production as a bit different though.
95
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
She puts a lot of emphasis on cuddle time,
96
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which she says helps the
camels feel more comfortable,
97
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and more willing to give up their milk.
98
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Every afternoon camel cuddling
is part of the job really?
99
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, that is quite a burden.
It is, it's terrible. Horrible.
100
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Be very hard for you. Yeah, very was
really great coming from a perspective that
101
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
we weren't Dairy people, because
we looked at camels as camels.
102
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And we looked at their needs and
103
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he loves to cuddle. Hello.
104
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, this is Rosie.
105
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And from your perspective, is this doing
well, weiwei breaking, even at the moment,
106
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and when we just popping
over into the profit sector,
107
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so when you start anything,
it's always difficult,
108
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but it certainly moving along in a
nice Direction. Let's put it that way.
109
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Today is all about versatility. We're
going to talk milk Alternatives.
110
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's right. It's not
just about Pals ball, baby.
