2 A. MOSTAGEER FACULTY - Daiv contributes some 31% to total agricultural production ìn 34% human consumption proteins. based mainly on cheese. Bufjfalo milk covers over sixtyper cent total production, although re are less heads this animal than cuttle. Buflalo herds produce un average 915 kg. milk per head yeal; whereas cattle produce o@ 415 kg. increase in number both species is less rapid than increase in hutnan population. genetic improvement is essentially due to selection local breeds in buffaloes, introduction irnproved by crossings or exploitation inzported herds conlmon practice in cattle. any case, presents certain problem. seem that results be obtained according to previous action concerning feeding prophylaxis. words: buffalo, cattle, human consumption. - <<La en Egypte,,.
