The income from dairy farming is now a major part of the New Zealand economy, becoming an NZ$ 11 billion industry by 2010. The first dairy co-operative was established on Otago Peninsula in 1871. In 1881, the newly arrived colonist William Bowron gave a series of lectures propounding the notion that the institution of dairy factories, for the mass production of cheese, would be greatly advantageous to the economy of New Zealand.", "Dairy farming is a class of agriculture for long-term production of milk, which is processed (either on the farm or at a dairy plant, either of which may be called a dairy) for eventual sale of a dairy product. In developed countries, dairy farms typically consist of high producing dairy cows. Other species used in commercial dairy farming include goats, sheep, and camels. In Italy, donkey dairies are growing in popularity to produce an alternative milk source for human infants.", "California Dairies, Inc. is the result of a successful 1999 merger of three of California's most financially successful cooperatives: California Milk Producers, Danish Creamery and San Joaquin Valley Dairymen. As the second largest dairy processing cooperative in the United States, California Dairies, Inc. is able to serve a variety of customers quickly. In constant communication with its customers, California Dairies, Inc. works to immediately adjust to and meet its customer’s needs, large or small." ], "url": [ "http://www.pwc.com.au/industry/agribusiness/assets/australian-dairy-industry-nov11.pdf", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dairy_farming", "http://www.ers.usda.gov/topics/animal-products/dairy/background.aspx", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dairy_farming", "http://ers.usda.gov/topics/animal-products/poultry-eggs/background.aspx", "http://www.osc.state.ny.us/osdc/rpt7-2013.pdf", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dairy_farming_in_New_Zealand", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dairy_farming", "http://www.californiadairies.com/about" ] }

Signs and symptoms of a severe reaction to a transfusion include fever, chills, low blood pressure, and shock.", "Jaundice refers to a yellowish color of the skin or whites of the eyes. When red blood cells die, they release hemoglobin into the bloodstream. The hemoglobin is broken down into a compound called bilirubin, which gives the skin and eyes a yellowish color.

This can happen if the transfused blood is a different blood type than your blood. Signs and symptoms of a severe reaction to a transfusion include fever, chills, low blood pressure, and shock.", "A yellow tinge to the whites of the eyes is a common symptom of jaundice.

The baby may not look yellow immediately after birth, but jaundice can develop quickly, usually within 24 to 36 hours.", "Symptoms. Jaundice is one of the visible hemolytic anemia symptoms that prompts an immediate blood test, so as to confirm the diagnosis. When red blood cells are destroyed, the hemoglobin in them is released into the blood, and it is eventually recycled to make fresh red blood cells.
