But the average milk yield of a cow in India is much less than in many other countries. They are also known as Nellore and their average milk yield is 1000 kilograms / lactation. The objectives of this study was to determine the effect of feeding sweet sorghum on yield and composition of crossbred (HF x Deoni) cow milk. 1. The Gir cow’s milk has an average of 4.69 to 4.97% of fat in its milk. In this study, Indian classical music was played 10 min before and was continued until the completion of evening milking in Deoni cows to determine its effects on milk production factors. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of different macro climatic variables on lactation length and lactation milk yield of Holdeo (Holstein Friesian x Deoni) crossbred cattle. Cow Milk. The following are some breeds of cows domesticated in India. Average age at first calving is approximately 46 months. The music was played during July 2003-June 2004 at alternate months. The milk yield ranges from 1000 – 1600 Kg per lactation. Gir cattle milk yield per day is around 6.5 to 12 liters ; Total lactation milk yield averaged 1 930 liters in an average lactation period of 300 days. About 70% of the cattle are dry and the others give an average of just 1-2 litres of milk per day. rich in a variety of minerals, vitamins, proteins and calcium. In a year, a cow gives milk for about 10 months. Extremely rich in calcium, and is a good source of minerals like magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus. length and height – Bulls: 129 and 134cms; Cows: 120 and 122cms; Milk yield ranges between 880 and 1580 kgs in a lactation period of 300 days. These five states accounted for 50 percent of milk cow inventory California led the country in both milk cow inventory and sales, with 1.8 million milk cows at the end of 2017 and $6.5 billion in 2017 milk sales. Also called Devani or Dongari, Deoni is one of the indigenous breed of India and is found in Maharashtra and Karnataka. Deoni. Buffalo Milk. Cholesterol Level. Less than cow’s milk This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of different macro climatic variables on milk production and reproduction efficiency of Holstein Friesian × Deoni crossbred cows. Similarly, (1134.88 kg), pendulous (1095.62 kg), while least LMY was recorded in round shaped Keywords Lactation milk Available Online: 10 Introduction Milk yield is an important selection criterion in dairy cattle. Lower in fat content than buffalo milk. Wisconsin was second, followed by New York, Idaho, and Texas. The energy required for milk production is directly proportional to the amount of milk she produces for a given cow of a given size. Approx. Nutritional value. The milk yield of deoni ranges from 636 - 1230 kilograms per lactation and their caving interval average are 447 days. Deoni. Deoni originated in Western Andhra Pradesh but is also found in the Marathwada region of Maharashtra and neighboring Karnataka. Fat Content. 35,000 – 40,000. Average fat content in the milk is approximately 4.3 percent. Milk yield. 100% more fat content than cow’s milk. characteristics of udder and teat and its relation with lactation milk yield (LMY) in deoni (8.60%). The cost of Kankrej cow in India is about Rs. The cow gives milk in the range of 900 – 1400 Kg per lactation. The fat content is 4.2%. cow’s milk totaled $36.7 billion in 2017, up 3.4 percent from 2012. India possesses the largest cattle population in the world. Some anatomical attributes are Milk Production and Nutrient Requirements: The nutrient needs of a cow are related to her size and milk production. Milk data of 145 Holdeo crossbred cows with 619 of lactation Body weight averages –Bulls: 620 to 680 kg; Cows: 432 to 485 kg.
