Abstract
The aim of this study was to transfer information to the farmers, by hygienic sanitary training, and verify if there was an improvement in milk quality through analysis of the Total Bacterial Count and Somatic Cell Count. The first stage of this research was the characterization of dairy farms that were worked as a Reference Units. This characterization was done by means of questionnaires and visits. The hygienic sanitary training, applied to each weekly visit in the units was made based on requirements set out in Instrucao Normativa no 51, Ministerio da Agricultura, Pecuaria e Abastecimento (MAPA). Finally, was verified the improvement of quality milk, through collect samples of raw milk and analysis in each Reference Unit. Thus, it was noted that the improvement in the values of Total Bacterial Count and Somatic Cell Count, and can be concluded that the transfer of information and technology through the hygienic sanitary training was effective. It is noteworthy that values of Somatic Cell Count suffer interface from external factors, while the total bacterial count was greater reduction in values, it depends on the producers performed by the milkers.

Summary
A atividade leiteira é praticada em todo o território nacional e é considerada uma das atividades mais importantes do agronegócio brasileiro. Os Estados Unidos, país considerado o maior produtor mundial de leite, produz 14,7% do volume de leite produzido mundialmente (EMBRAPA GADO DE LEITE, 2009), e possui um rebanho médio por produtor rural elevado se comparado ao Canadá, país que produz 1,4% da produção mundial de leite (YOUNG et al, 2010). Diante das características do setor lácteo brasileiro, surge a preocupação se o meio rural atende aos requisitos para produção de leite com qualidade. A maioria das práticas de gestão da propriedade rural é associada ao tamanho do rebanho, e provavelmente reflete as diferenças nas instalações e os recursos disponíveis, ou seja, para Hoe e Ruegg (2006), os grandes produtores rurais adotam as práticas de higiene e qualidade na produção com mais intensidade que os pequenos produtores. O objetivo deste trabalho foi transferir informações aos produtores de leite, por meio de treinamento higiênico-sanitário, e verificar se houve melhora na qualidade do leite através das análises do Contagem Bacteriana Total e Contagem de Células Somáticas
