British Toggenburgs in BGS milking trials 1995 onwards

Return to previous page
The data has been obtained in public and under test conditions.  The yield is for 24 hrs, with two milk samples being taken at roughly 12 hour intervals. An average of the tests on these samples is quoted for Fat % and Protein %.

The tests are carried out between May and October, and some goats will have kidded more than 365 days.
