Journal of Dairy Science is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on dairy animals, dairy products, and dairy production systems. The journal publishes original research, reviews, and technical notes relevant to animal husbandry, food processing, nutrition, and public health within contexts such as Iowa State University, United States Department of Agriculture, Cornell University, University of Wisconsin–Madison, and Texas A&M University. It serves as an outlet for investigators affiliated with institutions including Michigan State University, University of California, Davis, North Carolina State University, Pennsylvania State University, and University of Minnesota.

History

The journal was established by the American Dairy Science Association in 1917 amid growth in industrial agriculture, alongside contemporaneous developments at Smithsonian Institution, Brookhaven National Laboratory, and Food and Drug Administration regulatory activity. Early editorial leadership included scholars connected to Iowa State College, University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign, and Kansas State University who addressed issues tied to wartime food supply and postwar livestock programs associated with United States Congress legislation. Over decades the journal intersected with research networks at National Institutes of Health, United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service, and international partners such as United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization, reflecting shifts in production technologies and international trade policies shaped by agreements like General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.

Scope and Content

The scope encompasses lactation physiology, mastitis research, dairy cattle genetics, milk composition, dairy processing, and food safety, connecting work from laboratories at Johns Hopkins University, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Cambridge, and ETH Zurich. Articles address animal nutrition studies referencing trials at University of Florida, Louisiana State University, and University of Georgia and often cite methodologies developed at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory or analytical platforms used at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The journal routinely features content pertinent to regulatory frameworks influenced by Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act enforcement and standards from Codex Alimentarius Commission. Multidisciplinary submissions link dairy production to public health research from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and to climate and environmental studies involving National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessments.

Editorial and Publication Details

Published monthly by the American Dairy Science Association, the journal operates an editorial board composed of scientists from institutions such as University of Nebraska–Lincoln, Virginia Tech, Auburn University, University of Florida, and Oklahoma State University. Submission and peer-review procedures are influenced by guidelines from Committee on Publication Ethics and indexing standards similar to those of Clarivate Analytics. The journal has transitioned through printing and digital formats alongside partnerships with academic publishers and distribution networks including libraries at Library of Congress, research consortia at Association of Research Libraries, and repositories managed by National Agricultural Library. Special issues have been guest-edited by scholars affiliated with Royal Society, European Commission research directorates, and national academies such as National Academy of Sciences.

Abstracting and Indexing

The journal is abstracted and indexed in major services aligned with academic reference tools used at PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, AGRIS, and EMBASE. Metadata and citation tracking are integrated with platforms operated by CrossRef, Google Scholar, and academic aggregators used by universities including Columbia University, Yale University, and University of Oxford. Inclusion in indexing databases connects the journal to citation analyses conducted by entities such as Institute for Scientific Information and metrics frameworks associated with European Research Council funding evaluations.

Impact and Reception

The journal is regarded within agricultural and food science communities represented by organizations like International Dairy Federation, Union of European Academies for Advanced Sciences and Humanities, and national societies including American Society of Animal Science and Canadian Dairy Science Association. Its impact factor and citation profile are tracked by Journal Citation Reports and discussed in evaluations by universities such as University of California campuses and funding bodies like National Science Foundation. Reception among producers and extension networks at Cooperative Extension System and policy stakeholders at United States Department of Agriculture reflects the journal’s influence on herd management, dairy policy, and food safety guidance.

Notable Studies and Contributions

Landmark articles published in the journal have influenced breeding programs at institutions including The Roslin Institute and Rothamsted Research, mastitis control protocols utilized in veterinary curricula at Royal Veterinary College and Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine, and processing innovations adopted by dairy companies collaborating with Dairy Farmers of America and Nestlé. Studies linking bovine immunology to human health engaged researchers from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Institutes of Health, while environmental lifecycle assessments referenced frameworks developed by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and United Nations Environment Programme. The journal’s methodological advances in milk component analysis trace to laboratory techniques refined at Scripps Research Institute and instrumentation produced by firms associated with National Institute of Standards and Technology.
