99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
If you're looking to do more
to keep your emissions down,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you should probably start
with what you pour in your coffee.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Yep, I'm talking about milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
One researcher found that milk,
cheese, and ice cream from cows
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
is responsible for about 3.6%
of global emissions.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
The almonds in your almond milk,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
take about six times more water to grow
than the same amount of oats.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Which is one reason why oat milk
is now everywhere.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Well, those aren't
the only milk alternatives.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
There's also one
that has an added benefit,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
plus, it has humps.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
ALT MILK
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So now what we're going to do
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
is take a little bit of
milk out of each tit,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and we're going to have a look at that
milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(Arielle) Okay,
I'm going to give this a try.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I am getting quite--
Oh, there we go.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
All right, I'm milking camel.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(Lauren) The next two, the next two
we got to milk, yeah.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(Arielle) This is a camel dairy farm
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and it's in Australia.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
*When Lauren Brisbane started at six years
ago. It was the only one in the country.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's been difficult
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
because Australians aren't naturally
adventurous particularly in new food types.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
In the 1860s Afghan camel, herders
were hired to help explore the
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Desert Landscapes bringing
thousands of camels with them.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
But with the Advent of trains and
cars, camels soon became obsolete.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So they were released into the wild
fast forward to the early 2000s
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
in Australia, was home to
more than a million camels,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which was a problem because those
camels cause 10 million dollars
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
in environmental damage each
year according to the government.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So officials tried to stop them by
killing thousands of camels in 2010.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Lauren saw this as an opportunity
to turn camels into a cash cow.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
This worldwide need for camel milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It doesn't cause a lot of the dysfunction,
or the allergy reaction that you
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
get from, you know, dairy, cow dairy milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So it's easier to digest research
on camel. Milk is still very scarce.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
There's only limited evidence to suggest
that camel milk might have unique,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
nutritional properties and overall,
the jury still out at $25. L.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's also not cheap Luke. I think it's
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And C because camels don't
produce a lot of milk and the way
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
that you operated areas
completely different,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but it's a very high-end healthy product
and to produce that properly is expensive.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Camel milk has been popular in the Middle
East and Africa for thousands of years
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and Australia is nowhere. Close to
cracking the list of top producers.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Laura thinks she can help expand the products
reach Beyond, just being a fat though.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So, we had a chat with
her target audience.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Would you be willing to try the camel
milk today? Yeah. All right. Sure.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
What do you think it actually
tastes a lot like goats milk without
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the pungent taste. Yeah,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but you have a little bit of milk
are if they tell you the stash.
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,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
maybe? Okay, that's like four times,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the amount of get almond milk and I
guess as a novelty, it's all right,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Laurens Farm isn't the
only one of its kind
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
around a dozen other camel. Dairies
have popped up in Australia since 2014.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And the industry is growing
according to one report
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
its projected to grow by 8% globally
each year, for the next seven years.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's a projection that someone like Jeff
flood co-owner of Summerland camel, farm
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
is really banking on nearly
eight hundred camels. Now,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
besides our operation here represents
pretty much 60% of the industry on in total
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?
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We've got to take a feral
animal and convince it that it's
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
safe to be here.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's okay to give up milks.
It was a whole training
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and domestication process
in the front. Enjoy.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So this forms a super clean room?
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Okay, and there are some some
stuff in jars and some yeah,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
some Tupperware. What's going on here?
This is all that cheese prototyping.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So this was this top secret.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Yes. A lot of that is actually true.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Nobody's done stuff with camel
milk work, where you have. So,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
for example, who is anyone made a Parmesan
cheese out of a coma. Well, we have.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So this is, this morning's milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
That is so white. It is
so white color is very
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
giving you a huge also
looks completely different.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Thank you so much.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And I was really interesting.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It definitely tastes like milk. It
doesn't taste strong like goats milk
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
little bit on the salty side.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's really clean.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
What excited really clean mouth feel
so it spreads evenly across the mouth.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
The fat molecules.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Like I said, but really small
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and you get the full flavor of
the milk all the way through.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
What is the future of this industry?
Look like I would hope that in about
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Years time everybody. In
Australia, has tasted camel milk,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
whether it's a gelato or cheese or
milk, or they've used the product.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
That's got camel milk in there.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Maybe the skincare range is or something
nutraceutical product that uses power
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
scaling camel milk production isn't easy
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
because of their low and sometimes
unpredictable daily yield
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but Jeff's Farm is trying to do just that.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Laurens approach to camel, milk
production as a bit different though.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
She puts a lot of emphasis on cuddle time,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which she says helps the
camels feel more comfortable,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and more willing to give up their milk.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Every afternoon camel cuddling
is part of the job really?
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Well, that is quite a burden.
It is, it's terrible. Horrible.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Be very hard for you. Yeah, very was
really great coming from a perspective that
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
we weren't Dairy people, because
we looked at camels as camels.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And we looked at their needs and
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
he loves to cuddle. Hello.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Okay, this is Rosie.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And from your perspective, is this doing
well, weiwei breaking, even at the moment,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and when we just popping
over into the profit sector,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so when you start anything,
it's always difficult,
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but it certainly moving along in a
nice Direction. Let's put it that way.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Today is all about versatility. We're
going to talk milk Alternatives.
99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
That's right. It's not
just about Pals ball, baby.
