Freezing Point Sample Clauses
The 'Freezing Point' clause establishes a specific date or event after which certain terms, conditions, or data in an agreement become fixed and cannot be altered. In practice, this means that any changes to relevant information—such as pricing, deliverables, or specifications—are not permitted after the freezing point, regardless of subsequent developments. This clause is commonly used to provide certainty and stability for both parties, ensuring that key contractual elements remain consistent and are not subject to last-minute changes or disputes.
Freezing Point. This test is to detect added water. Nutritional problems can cause freezing points to rise, but not generally above - 0.5°C. With payments for composition, there is no incentive to add water to milk. We still test for ‘Added Water’ however as it can occur and is a risk to overall milk quality at the factory. Members will be notified of issues as they arise. If suppliers are found to have water in their milk, they may be subject to suspension until the issue is resolved.
Freezing Point. This test is to detect added water. Suppliers will be notified of issues if they arise. Suppliers who have poor quality milk (i.e., high Bacto, high Thermodurics, high SCCs, high Temperature, etc.) will be advised in writing and collection may be suspended until FDA Representative is satisfied that a suitable milk hygiene program has been put in place. Milk collection may cease entirely if poor milk quality persists over the course of three months. All milk test results are available within approximately 36 hours of the milk being collected. Tests are available by SMS/email/internet (FDA Portal). Suppliers are reminded that the tanker docket system may not always be available, and it is recommended that they use the electronic methods for regular retrieval of milk quality and production results. The email/SMS/internet system is the most timely and efficient way of getting your results. All suppliers are advised to have adequate insurance to cover any and all incidences of milk loss, contamination or damage to other supplier’s milk in the milk tanker. FDA will not be responsible for payment of milk not collected or not utilised by FDA due to: Milk contamination as defined by these Conditions of Supply - • Inhibitory substances • Milk temperature • Adverse weather conditions • Where the farm has restricted access due to safety, or notified public health reasons – such as animal disease (botulism, FMD, Anthrax) etc. • Road access – specifically lack of adequate road access due to weather conditions: Farmers are reminded that they must have 24-hour, all-weather access and safe road access for milk tankers under all weather conditions to the dairy (see transport section 6 for further details). FDA strongly encourages suppliers to discuss with FDA Representative any suspect milk before pick-up and take advantage where necessary of the preliminary testing if advised to do so. FDA strives to remove the risk of contaminated milk entering the processing system. Inhibitory substances can include, but are not limited to: antibiotics, pesticides, herbicides, detergents (especially quaternary ammonium compounds), blood, and colostrum. These substances, especially antibiotics, can have extreme effects on the manufacturing processes. All tankers are AB tested upon arrival at a processing facility with subsequent additional testing for individual ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ milk if there has been a positive antibiotic result. The penalty for supplying milk not suitable for human consumption ...
Freezing Point. The freezing point test is used to detect any added water. Adverse freezing point values may either indicate the presence of extraneous water or occasionally poor nutritional status of the cow or herd. In most cases a freezing point under -0.517, will indicate the presence of extraneous water, over and above that of the natural water content of milk. Beston may test for freezing point at times throughout the year to ensure customer requirements are met. When picking up milk from a supplier, tanker drivers have been instructed to complete a sensory test on the milk. The tanker driver will check that the supplier’s milk meets the following criteria: • White to cream in colour Picture • Free from foreign matter, taints and coagulation • That has no abnormal odours. This test is at the discretion of the tanker driver and they are given the authority by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to reject any loads of milk that do not meet the criteria above. The supplier’s Field Services Officer will be informed and will come out and check that the supplier’s milk is fit to be collected. If so, then the tanker driver will return and pick up the milk. The supplier will be penalised at the company’s discretion for any loads that fail the sensory test. By the 1st of June for the milk year commencing 1st July of the supply year, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will announce the Opening Price for the year for all suppliers in the Southern Milk Region. The Opening Price provides a minimum monthly price for butterfat and protein across the year and is based on the supply of premium quality milk. Beston will pay for butterfat and protein at a ratio of 1:2.2 which is reflected in all milk pricing components in this Handbook.
