EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTATION WITH ORANGE SILAGE ON THE CAPRINE MILK QUALITY. rev.udcaactual.divulg.cient. [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.2, pp.501-506.

One of the main problems of the commercial production of goat milk, derives in the high costs of supplementation, due to the use of balanced foods. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the supply of orange silage (EN) on the quality of goat milk A randomized complete block design was used with 48 animals of the Saanen breed, distributed in two treatments, one of 250g (treatment 1) and another of 500g (treatment 2) of EN inclusion and a control with four replicates each with four animals. The EN consisted of small pieces of fruit fermented for 30 days. The parameters of milk quality: fat, protein, nonfat solids, minerals, density and lactose, were measured in a Julie C3 Scope Electric equipment with a weekly periodicity for two months by comparing means by means of Tukey’s test to milk quality parameters, a significant difference was found P <0.05 for fat in treatment 1 and protein and mineral solids in treatment 2, with averages of 3.99% and 0,86% respectively. For the other parameters, similar values were obtained. Therefore, it is concluded that EN, used as a nutritional supplement, is a nutritional alternative that improves some quality characteristics of goat milk.
