The rise in the economic situation of countries allied to the increase in life expectancy of the population resulted in augmenting the demand for food. To meet this demand, an economic model emerges based on the vertiginous exploitation of natural resources oriented only to productivity and profit. However, this type of model is unsustainable in the long term and causes significant environmental impacts. Production systems must not only be economically viable for producers, but also adhere to environmentally sustainable standards. Therefore, this article focuses on the application of a bibliometric review to trace a profile of scientific production in relation to sustainable dairy farming examining efficiency in three dimensions: technical, economic and environmental. The analysis of the works revealed that several strategies can contribute to the development of environmentally sustainable dairy farming. However, for these alternatives to have a practical effect in relation to their objectives, they must be incorporated into the activities carried out by producers.
