Effect of Feeding Sesame Oil Cake on Performance, Milk and Cheese Quality of Anglo-Nubian Goats
Abstract
This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding sesame oil cake (SOC) on milk and cheese quality of Anglo-Nubian goats. Sixteen lactating (20 daysin-milk) Anglo- Nubian goats were used in the experiment that lasted for 60 days. Goats were divided into 4 dietary treatment groups of 4 goats in each and the goats were dist tributed between the groups in a way they represent age and lactation stage. Goats were housed in pens of suitable size and were managed as any other commercial goat flock. The animals had free access to water. Straw was fed at rate of 1% of live body weight. Four types of dietary treatment were prepared using SOC. The first diet was the control and the other three diets contained: 5, 10, and 15% SOC, respectively. Animals fed twice daily and were milked during the feeding time. Milk yield (MY) was recorded daily and samples were taken for chemical analysis. Cheese was made on a monthly basis and samples were taken for sensory evaluation for flavor and texture. Incorporation of SOC in goats’ diets at levels of 10 and 15% caused an increase (P
