The effect of Sodium butyrate on milk yields and milk composition of goats fed HG diet versus those fed HG alone and LG diet

The milk yield and milk compositions were analyzed by the mixed model of SAS with repeated measures, p ≤ 0.05 was considered significant

^{a, b and c.} The means with different superscript were considered significantly different

^dLG low gain, HG high grain, HG + NaB high grain + sodium butyrate
