Abstract:

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a galactagogue Milkease®, on the yield and composition of milk. Three multiparous crossbred cows in mid-lactation stages were selected for this study. It was given at the rate of 30 g twice daily and was fed to the animals for a total period of 2 months. Milk sampling for analysis was done in morning and evening hours once every week during the experimental period. At the end of the trial, it was observed that the galactagogue supplementation resulted in an increase of quality (composition) as well as quantity (Milk yield) of milk in all the three animals. Hence, it is concluded that Milkease® is a combination of all those essential nutrients which helps in increasing the milk yield as well as its composition.
