description | The problem was the low volume of domestic production of milk and its products, despite the availability of large livestock producing milk, as a result of the low productivity of animals, which contributed to the lack of access per capita in Egypt to his sufficient share of milk. The research aimed to study the development of production, productivity of animal heads, the expected milk production of municipal cows, mixture, foreign and buffalo, actual dairy production, total expected production and expected increase of milk. The average amount of milk production of buffalo milk was estimated at about 2391 thousand tons, and the average productivity of buffalo is 697 kg / year, and the average amount of cattle milk production is about 3072 thousand tons. The average productivity of cows amounted to about 727 kg / year during the period. It was found that the average production of dairy head according to type and production areas during the period for municipal cows, mixture, foreign cows, buffaloes is about 516, 1121, 2765, 747 kg / year respectively. It was found that the average expected production of municipal cows reached about 2688 thousand tons during the same period. While the average expected production of mixed cows was 3215 thousand tons during the studied period. It turned out that the average total expected dairy production represented about 8457 thousand tons during the same period. The average expected per capita production was 88 kg/year, an increase of about 32.6% from the per capita available consumption. |
