Vision
The Foundation supports basic scientific research and education, which contributes to the production of better, healthier and safer dairy products.

Strategy
At the end of 2003/beginning of 2004, MFF reviewed its research strategy in order to maintain future focus on three research themes:

  • Dairy Technology and Informatics
  • Food Safety and Control
  • Nutrition and Health

Earlier, MFF operated with a fourth theme, viz. ‘Raw Materials and Quality’. Today, this area is handled by The Danish Cattle Federation, but MFF is working on securing that the knowledge gained is distributed to the dairies and is of relevance, from a dairy process point of view. The scope of the four themes is described in the following material.


Research method
The research projects must have a generic dairy-oriented content. They should expand the scientific basis for the technology and product development within the dairy companies collaboration. The results are disseminated to the entire dairy sector at conferences, in national and international journals and via reporting at steering group level.

The research projects are carried out in collaboration with public research institution, making sure that the cutting edge expertise of the institutions is transformed into the development of competitive Danish diary products.
