Milk is a product that has great consumption in the world. It is used for food in many communities, as well as being an important ingredient to be used with various types of dishes. Thus, milk fats in milk and dairy products are important sources of nutrients and energy for the population. Different animal species produce quality milk, with different fatty acid compositions, as the composition of a ruminant's diet is one of the factors that can cause changes in milk fatty acids. Thus, targeted modification of ruminant diets can be used to produce milk with a desirable fatty acid profile. A focus on improving the nutrition of these animals directly implies the final product.
