Ade3131: Twinning is more common in dairy cows. I have seen few cases in indigenous beef cattle. And there is freemartinism in twin calves of different sex. Although its more beneficial to beef production. To make beef cattle farming profitable in this part of the world, farms need to focus more on the 'little milk' the beef cows have to offer. The sales of milk and it's products would cater for the farm's running cost while the yearly calf sales would be the profit...IMO 2 Likes |

aaaazq:seen a few twin birth too but the issue of sterility in twin of different sex is a great concern (freemartin)I feel dairy farming will be more profitable on a micro scale (5 cows or less) especially in you live where the milk can be easily marketed ( Abuja and environs,kd and environs,Kano etc)I noticed most of the nunu (fermented milk) sold in Abuja is made from powdered milk. And usually not creamy, yoghurt is even worse.if someone can capture a small part part of this market, money can be made 1 Like |

And usually not creamy, yoghurt is even worse.if someone can capture a small part part of this market, money can be made. Dairy farming is still at infancy in Nigeria. African countries like Kenya have gone far in annexing the potential of this industry. The reality is, the high producing breeds like Holstein, jersey and Guernsey are expensive though if properly managed, the investment would be worth it. Holstein is the highest producing breed with an average of 40 litres of milk per cow per day on a 305 days lactation period, although the milk production may be lower in the tropical region like sub Sahara Africa where u get 18-30litres. The milk solid of this breed is however lower to that of new jersey. Also, the awareness of the health benefits of raw and pasteurized milk need to be emphasized. You are absolutely correct. You can't compare a yoghurt made with fresh milk to the one made with powdered milk. The creamy taste with no sweetener. Fresh milk is also the best for Greek yoghurt. Also, a farmer can get a pure bull of any of those breeds for gradual improvement of the milk production of his herd . This can be done to improve the beef quantity and quality by get getting a fast growing beef bull/quote] 1 Like |
