Abstract

The aim of the study is to assess milk composition at specific location. The study was designed as per the resources available at local situation. The research has conducted at the Bhandarej tahsil of Rukmani Devi College of Agriculture, Dausa district of Rajasthan during 2021-23. The specific gravity of Jamunapari goat breed’s milk was greater than that of Sirohi animals. 05 milk samples of Jamunapari Goat and 05 milk samples were collected from Sirohi goat breed during the lactation at different villages of dausa tahsil of dausa district throughout two years. The overall fat per cent in the both breeds during 2021- 23 of all the 1200 samples was found to be 4.68±0.021, Solids Not Fat (SNF) 8.45±0.030 per cent and total solids percentage was found to be 13.32 ± 0.035. The protein per cent during 2021 - 22 conditions was significantly (p <0.01) greater than that of farm rearing goat milk in both the breeds. The statistical analysis also revealed that the lactose content in 2021 – 22 has significantly higher than that of 2022 -23 in Sirohi as well as Jamunapari goat breeds at p <0.05.The overall average ash content in both breed’s milk during 2021 - 23 of all samples was found to be 0.815±0.007 per cent. Breed had conspicuous effects on milk quality of goats under study.
