    • 1894, John Oliver, Milk, Cheese and Butter, page 334:
      The ability to determine the composition of milk and its products, to such an extent as will serve practical purposes, is a very desirable acquirement for the dairyer.
    • 1972, John Ehle, The cheeses and wines of England and France:
      We admit it, but the Cheddar system does not seek quantity so much as quality; and when any dairyer takes to cutting tools in order to gain that advantage, he forsakes the Cheddar system and has no longer a right to call his product Cheddar.
    • 2013, C. W. Walker-Tisdale, The Practice of Soft Cheesemaking, page 1:
      The great object of the dairyer must be to produce, good, wholesome milk, and afterwards to keep it pure and free from contamination.
