Farmers do not pasteurize milk. That is done by the milk processors who receive milk from the farmer. Milk is pasteurized by raising it to a high temperature for a short time, thus killing many of the bacteria that would otherwise cause it to spoil more quickly or to sicken the consumer.

∙ 12y agoMilk is pasteurised either by holding at 63°C for 30min (batch method) or holding at 72°C for 15 seconds (HTST method).
The test for pasteurisation is that the phosphatase test must be negative (phosphatase enzymes inactivated).

Is milk filtered in a dairy farm?
No, milk from a dairy farm is sent to market raw but chilled. The milk is taken to a processing plant which will pasteurize, separate and package the milk and milk products. However, some dairy farms will pasteurize unsaleable milk (milk from cows that cannot be sent to market, such as that from cows who have recently received antibiotics or cows that just calved) to feed to their calves. Pasteurizing this milk makes it safer to feed to the calves and saves the farmer money by reducing the need to buy milk replacer.
