Milk and its by-products offer a concentrated source of proteins and nutrients that are essential for life and that can be challenging to obtain from other foods. There has been growing interest in the production, enhancement, and effective utilization of milk over time. The objective of this research paper is to contribute to ongoing efforts to enhance the production and collection of milk and dairy derivatives in Romania. In a study analyzing the dairy industry in the European Union, various indicators were examined with the aim of classifying countries and determining Romania’s position. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the dairy industry in the European Union, several indicators were considered, including milk production; different dairy products, such as butter and cheese; and data on bovine populations in various age groups. To efficiently classify the countries and identify Romania’s position, advanced data mining techniques were employed, including cluster analysis and neural network training. To enhance and advance the dairy industry in Romania, this study proposes the exploration of the potential advantages of implementing Industry 4.0 solutions, particularly on a larger scale, with Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) software.
