Milk Yield and Composition of Etawah Crossbred Does at Different Parities
Produksi dan Komposisi Susu Kambing Peranakan Etawah pada Paritas yang Berbeda
Main Article Content
Milk yield and composition of dairy goats are commonly influenced by breed, lactation stage, feed (nutrition and intake), age, milking time, and environmental conditions. The purposes of this study were to evaluate the milk yield and its composition from different parities of Etawah crossbred does. The Etawah crossbred does with age ranging from 13 to 31 months were divided into two groups: first parity group (n = 6) and the second-parity group (n = 8). Milk yield was recorded during both the morning and afternoon milking sessions (total daily milk yield). The fresh milk was used to analyze its composition. The results revealed that parity had a significant effect on total solid, moisture, and fat content (p<0.01), but not on daily milk yield, ash, or protein content. The total solids of milk from does in the first parity were lower than those from the second parity, whereas the moisture content was higher. Furthermore, the fat content of milk from the second parity was higher than that from the first parity. However, milk yield tended to increase in the second parity compared to the first. It can be concluded that the different parity has an impact on the milk composition of Etawah crossbred does. Thus, beside parity, feed quality and good milking practices can improved milk yield and its composition.
