IN the early stages the growth of the lamb is largely dependent on the milk yield of its dam. In hill sheep, where the environment constitutes the limiting factor to production, a study of the milking capacity of the ewe would seem to be of special interest, as it forms a large part of the lamb's environment at a most important period of growth.

Comparison of 2 types of milk flow meters for detecting bimodality in dairy cows
: The primary objective of this observational study was to investigate whether incremental milk flow rates (in the 0–15 s, 15–30 s, 30–60 s, and 60–120 s intervals) from electronic on-farm milk flow meters can be used to detect bimodal milk flow curves ...

Evaluation of Milk Yield and Milk Composition of Honamlı Goats
The aim of this study was to determine the milk yield and milk composition (total solids, fat, protein and lactose), freezing point depressionand somatic cell counts of Honamlı goat during second lactationin Turkey. The animal material of the study consisted of a total of 30 goat. Total milk yield was detected by using Fleischmann’s method.
