| Abstract: | The chemical composition of fresh milk and evaporated milk of cow from both local and imported sources was determined. The imported types of fresh milk and evaporated milk contained over 3% and 9% butterfat respectively; these figures agreed with the label declaration. The locally-produced fresh milk samples were found to contain mean values ranging from 2·76 % to 7·50% for butterfat, 11'62% to 15·19% for total solids, 2·99% to 3'63% for protein and 0·59% to 0'62% for ash. Crossbreeds of Jersey and any of the local breeds of Jersey and any local breeds of cattle produce milk of high chemical composition |
