The present study was conducted to process yoghurt from non bovine milk. Milk from sheep,
camel and goat were examined for compositional content before the processing. Milk powder was
additionally used for processing yoghurt as a control. The processing was done by adding 2.5% of
the starter culture to worm milk (41º C) and the inoculated milk was distributed into plastic cups
and incubated at 37º C. The incubation time was found as 3-4, 16- 18, 3- 4 and 3 hours, for sheep,
camel, goat and powder milk, respectively. The consistency of yoghurt was observed to be firm,
watery, slightly firm and firm, respectively. Yoghurt samples were then stored in refrigerator for
10 days. The composition and pH were examined during the storage period. The pH showed non
significant differences between yoghurt from different milk types. The composition of yoghurt
showed significantly (P≤0.01) high fat content in yoghurt made from sheep and camel yoghurt
showed significantly (P≤0.05) lower fat, protein and ash content compared to others. However
yoghurt made from sheep milk was significantly (P≤0.01) higher in total solids and ash contents.
The sensory evaluation of yoghurt produced from the milk of these three species; as was judged
by the untrained panelists, revealed higher acceptability compared to powder milk yoghurt.
Further investigations on goat yoghurt, powder milk and their mixture during the storage, showed
that the taste of yoghurt made from goat and powder milk was accepted and found to be better
than that of their mixture. The flavor of yoghurt in day 5 was found better for goat milk yoghurt,
while in day 7 it was best for powder milk yoghurt, the mixture was rejected in day 7. The texture
of the yoghurt made with goat and milk powder mixture was recorded as watery after 5 days of
storage. Although goat yoghurt showed watery texture till day 3 it revealed an accepted texture
until day 10. Powder milk yoghurt showed firm texture since day 7. Hence it is concluded that the
future of sheep, camel and goat yoghurt production is bright if production constraints are
addressed as there is an urgent need to focus on improving the production from these species and
improving marketing channels. The present study would also suggest the creation of collection
points with cooling facilities to initiate and sustain the use of milk from these animals in
processing dairy products. The high total solids content of sheep milk could be incorporated to
standardized solids not fat of yoghurt mixed to minimize and stop the huge importation of powder
milk. This in terms will improve food security and hence the sustainable development
