Abstract:
The Limousine breed is spread on all continents in 64 countries, and Romania will be the 65th country in which it is
trying to adapt this breed of cattle. Limousine is currently ranked No. 1 in England and is highly regarded in other
countries, including France, No. 2, Canada, No. 2, Italy, and the United States. 3rd place. The main objective of this
project is to observe the adaptability of the Limousine breed to the geo-meteorological conditions recorded in northern
Romania, the Bukovina region. The aim of the paper is to evaluate from a nutritional qualitative point of view the raw
milk obtained from this breed. The investigations were carried out to establish the degree of freshness, integrity and we
monitored some physical-chemical and hygienic parameters of the raw material milk. Sampling was done directly from
the collection vessels after milking and filtration mainly in the hot season, and their processing was done in the Food
Control Laboratory of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Iasi, where a number of 38 milk samples were processed.
Following the analysis of the samples, a number of 8 samples were inadequate in terms of organoleptic examination and
integrity. Deviations from the organoleptic characteristics of the parameters of appearance, color, smell, and taste
represented a percentage of 21.05%. The determinations of the Physico-chemical parameters were classified as
inappropriate a number of 10 samples which represents a percentage of 26.31% of the total samples collected.
