Abstract
The present investigation was undertaken in the Department of
Animal Husbandry and Dairying, Dr.PDKV., Akola. The main
objective of present investigation was to study the effect of
lactation on composition and physico-chemical properties of
local goat milk. During the entire study the fresh goat milk
samples were collected from local goats in I, II, III and IV
lactations of which four goats were in each lactation. The
lactation had significant increasing effect on fat, protein,
ash, TS, SNF, titratable acidity and viscosity. All milk
components are gradually increased from I to IV lactation with
exception of lactose and pH.
