Abstract: A total of 100 samples were randomly collected from milk producers, milk vendors, private dairy, hotel and restaurant and co-operative dairies of Amravati city in Amravati district (M.S.) and tested for the determination of physico-chemical quality and extent of adulteration at Post Graduate Laboratory of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science section, College of Agriculture, Nagpur (M.S.). The results indicated that out of 100 samples the highest per cent of milk samples for specific gravity level below 1.028 were found in private dairy (70.00%) and the lowest per cent in milk producer (30.00%). For the fat level group, highest per cent of milk samples in group of 3.5 to 4.5 were found in milk producer (55.00%) and the lowest per cent were found in private dairy (35.00%), for the SNF level group, the highest per cent of milk samples level group of between 8.5 to 9 were found in milk producer (65.00%) and the lowest per cent were found in private dairy (40%). For the acidity level group, highest per cent between 0.15 to 0.20 found were found in private dairy (60.00%) and lowest in hotel and restaurant and co-operative dairies (45.00%). As indicated by specific gravity, the highest per cent of milk samples adulterated with water were found in private dairy (70.00) followed by milk vendor (60.00%), co-operative dairies (55.00%). The lowest per cent of milk samples adulterated with water were found in milk producer (30.00%).
