Impact of Goat Breeds on the Milk Composition under Climatic Conditions of Sainthal Tahsil of Dausa District Rajasthan

Milk is often rightly described as a near-complete food in nature. It contains all five major nutrients: fat, protein, lactose (milk sugar), vitamins, and minerals (salts). The research was conducted at the Rukmani Devi College of Agriculture, Dausa district of Rajasthan during 2021-23. The specific gravity of the Sirohi goat milk was greater than that of Jakhrana animals. The overall fat percent in both breeds during 2021-23 of all the 1200 samples was found to be 4.61±0.021, Solids Not Fat (SNF) 8.44±0.030 percent, and total solids percentage was found to be 13.32±0.035. The protein percent during 2021-22 conditions was significantly (p < 0.01) greater than that of farm-rearing goat milk in both breeds. The statistical analysis also revealed that the lactose content in 2021-22 has significantly higher than that of 2022 -23 in Jakhrana as well as Sirohi goat breeds at p < 0.05. The average ash content in both breeds’ milk during 2021-23 of all samples was found to be 0.814±0.007 percent. Breed had conspicuous effects on milk quality of goats under study.
