However, there's only so much milk a single sheep can produce, so some cheese makers are turning to alternative milks, like cow, buffalo, camel and goat, to make their halloumi.

Shortage of Goat and Sheep Milk is Challenging Production of Halloumi Cheese
Anxiety and concern have been prevalent in the cheese production industry for some time now, with the main culprit being a lack of fresh goat and sheep milk. This shortage is hindering the production of halloumi cheese, one of the world's most recognizable and loved cheeses. Goat milk is particularly important because it gives the cheese its characteristic tangy, acidic flavor.
In recent years, there has been a big increase in demand for halloumi cheese in the global halloumi cheese market. However, due to the lack of fresh goat milk, many cheese producers have had to turn to substitute ingredients such as cow, sheep and even almond milk in order to make their product. The Cyprus dairy industry is experiencing a shortage of this type of milk due to export restrictions imposed by the European Union. The lack of quality goat milk has caused the price of this cheese to rise.
As a result, most of the producers in the global halloumi cheese market are forced to apply 20–80% goat-sheep to and cow milk ratio. However, the producers in the Cyprus will have to obliged the formula of 51–49% by 2024. Currently, the country is producing 60 million liters of sheep-goat milk, out of which over 10 million liters are used for other dairy production. As a result, the production is likely to shrink by 50% if not addressed immediately.
The main issue with this is that these substitutes often result in cheeses that are either less flavorful or have a different texture. This has placed great pressure on the cheese industry as consumers are becoming increasingly sensitive to the difference between traditional and imitation cheeses.
