Abstract:

In this study, different raw milk samples were collected from free-ranging indigenous breeds and zero-grazing exotic breeds of cow, goat & buffalo and analyzed for various physicochemical parameters and microbial activity. It was found that the milk from free-ranging cow shad 0.152±0.004% acidity, 4.42±0.38% fat, 9.01±0.5% solid non fat, 13.64±0.27% total solids, 1.03±0.001 specific gravity,6.68±0.002 pH, 5.18±0.38% protein, 4.10±0.05% lactose, 0.38±0.08% ash. Whereas, zero-grazing cow shad 0.151±0.005% titratable acidity, 4.04±0.45% fat, 8.74±0.75% SNF, 12.64±0.17% TS, 1.06±0.001 Specific Gravity, 6.80±0.02 pH,5.28±0.40% Protein, 4.45±0.06% lactose, 0.42±0.10% ash. Free-ranging indigenous breeds were found better according to this study as compared to zero-grazing exotic breeds.
