Ghana has diverse cow breeds, yet there is a notable paucity of information on how these breeds differ in milk quality, and by extension West African soft cheese yield and nutritional quality. This poster presents the study of how cow breed and farm location on milk composition and soft cheese (“Wagashi”) yield.

The authors of this poster are Matthew Atongbiik Achaglinkame, Linda Dari and Daniel Mörlein.
