Abstract
Senduro and Peranakan Etawah goats are two of Indonesian local goat breeds designated as new goat breeds and a wealth of Indonesian Livestock Genetic resources that must be protected. Senduro and Peranakan Etawah goats are also one of the local goat breeds that are very efficient as milk producers. Information on the milk production of dairy goats, especially Senduro and Peranakan Etawah goats in the late lactation period, is not yet known. So it is necessary to conduct further research. The research was conducted from December 28, 2022, to January 28, 2023. Field research was conducted at UPT & HMT Malang, Singosari District, Malang Regency, East Java. The materials used in this study were Senduro goats and Peranakan Etawah goats of 37 heads each. The analysis results with an unpaired Independent Sample T Test showed a difference in milk production between Senduro goats and Etawah goats. Senduro goats have a higher production compared to Etawah goats in the late lactation period.
